Series, episodes and numbered content

Automate ongoing downloads

Use watches and counters to follow content whose search term changes from one release to the next.

How a counter works

Place {counter} in a supported search pattern. With Example S02E{counter}, autofetch can search for successive episode numbers using your selected start value, step and formatting.

Prepare unreleased episodes

Create the watch before the next episode exists. The missing item remains waiting instead of becoming a failed download.

Keep gaps visible

If a later number appears first, autofetch can process it while continuing to look for the missing number.

Current source support

Counters are currently intended for supported media-library and IRC/XDCC sources. They are not currently offered for RSS and JSON feeds.
