-===What is it?!===
+{{update}}
-----
+Add '''file episode''' relations. The old way to add O episodes or stick file comments in is dead and should '''NOT''' be used any more.
-A multi-episode file is a file with at least 2 episodes. Those are troublesome as AniDB can only associate 1 episode to 1 file at the moment.
-===How to add them to Anidb?!===
-----
-* If a group releases all eps in multi-ep-files (e.g. [http://anidb.info/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=330 Future Boy Conan]), these files should be added to specials
-* If a group releases just <i>some</i> files that contain multiple eps (e.g. the dual eps in [http://anidb.info/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=56 Prince of Tennis]), these files should be added to the first episode they contain.<br>
-In both cases, people of course still have to add generic files to their lists. That workaround can't be avoided.
-In any case, it is important to have a consistent naming-scheme for special-ep-titles and file-comments that is easy to understand both for humans and programs. We came up with this:
-:* Naming-scheme for specials: "Episode[s] X-Y: (Titles of eps)", where X and Y can, if neccessary, be followed by a letter (a,b,c,...) to indicate partial/split episodes.
-::<u>Examples:</u>
-:: "Episode 1-3: [...]" (contains three eps)
-:: "Episode 1-2a: [...]" (contains complete first ep, part of the second ep)
-:: "Episode 2b: [...]" (contains second part of the second ep)[/list]
-:* Naming-scheme for file-comments: "contains ep[s] X-Y" with the same rules as above[/list]
-===Additional note to reduce confusion===
-----
-====Why is Ebichu 24 episodes (was aired 2 episodes at a time) when Azumanga Daioh is 26 episodes? (was aired 5 episodes at a time)====
-This question can be answered pretty fast by checking their japanese homepages.<br>
-:* Ebichu is mentioned on the page as having 24 episodes. It was also released on 4 DVDs with 6 episodes per dvd. Can be seen here: [http://www.gainax.co.jp/anime/awaawa/] and more clearly here (purple box): [http://www.gainax.co.jp/soft/awadvd/index.html]
-:* Azumanga Daioh is <b>very</b> clearly marked as 26 episodes with 5 chapters per episode. Can be seen here: [http://www.imagica.com/shop/azumanga/episode/ep_index.html]
