Setup AnimeTosho Provider

Description:

Since it have been a few people unable to configure by themselves, and currently Bazarr UI is not the most user friendly on configuring integrations at the moment. This is a step-by-step on how to create your HTTP AniDB client and use the Animetosho provider.

This guide assumes that you have Bazarr already configured and working!

Steps:

1 - Navigate to AniDB and sign up for an account

r/bazarr - Registration Form
Registration Form

2 - Login into your Account on AniDB

r/bazarr - Login Form
Login Form

3 - Navigate to AniDB client registration page.

4 - Add a new Project, on the tab `Add New Project`

r/bazarr - Setup AnimeTosho Provider

5 - Fill the Form for the new Project and click on `Add Project` button to submit the form.

6 - Once the project is created, go back to the `Projects` tab and then click on the project you just created

7 - On the Project Details Page, click over `Add Client` button, so we will be creating a client for your Project now

8 - Fill the Form for the Client, Make sure you don't forget the `Client Name` and the `Version` because we will be needing it for Bazarr! Also make sure the API is changed to `HTTP API`.

Reddit does not let me add a new image, the image has an issue where Client name should only be letters from a to z and lowercase.

9 - Once the client is created, let's now go to Bazarr providers page usually at `http://{url}/settings/providers`

10 - On the bottom part of the `Integrations` click over the `+` button, and setup the AniDB Client. Make sure you fill up exactly how it was configure on AniDB. Click `Save`!!!

11 - Next, you are still on Bazarr settings page, and now you should click over `+` on the top part to add a new Provider, and select `Anime Tosho`.

12 - Select Anime Tosho, and i recommend keep the default Search Threshold unless the results are not being satisfactory, come back to increase here later, but this will make the search much slower since it will need to fetch more results from Animetosho.

Thanks everything you need! Go automate your subtitles download.

That looks awesome. Thanks for the help, I'll give it a try. The other day I wanted to add AnimeTosho as provider to Sonarr, but couldn't find how to, any help there will be much appreciated too.

Hey, just a warning, this post and sonarr are not correlated at all, this is mostly used for searching subtitles for anime with bazarr.

But you can also add AnimeTosho to your Sonarr without a problem, just not like this post describes, even better, start using Prowlarr, and it'll be easier to set up indexers

It's a straightforward process but still I have an error in the log:

BAZARR Error (cannot access local variable 'anidb_id' where it is not associated with a value) trying to get video information for this file: /data/media/tv/Dragon Ball Super (2015) {imdb-tt4644488}/Season 05/Dragon Ball Super (2015) - S05E42 - Accelerating Tragedy Vanishing Universes [Bluray-1080p][AC3 5.1][x265].mkv

Also I can't set a Client Name in your format. Form only approves lowercase names. Still name displayed on the AniDB list starts with capital letter.

I've tried both names with and without capital letter and error is the same. Any ideas?

The bug with the Dragon Ball will be fixed on the latest beta

This is very appreciated. Made the process a breeze instead of having to look for different areas to get the information. Greatly appreciated

For the contact and URL in step 5, do you need actual email and URL of your website?

It is working but will spam log with this. Thank you for the procedure, I gave up halfway through but this solved my problem.

I think this issue has been resolved on Beta alreadt
