Description

I have 2 Anime in a Group
https://anidb.net/anime/1779
https://anidb.net/anime/785
If I open the overview page of the 2 anime, I see the other one in the Related Anime Section as "Alternative Setting".
AniDb lists them as "Alternative Version" there is no hint of "Alternative Setting" in the AniDB Metadata according to the AniDB homepage. So where does this Alternative Setting come from?

Steps to Reproduce

Load the 2 Anime mentioned into shoko.

Nothing we can do about it, so closing this. If you want, then you can try nudging AniDB to fix their HTTP API.

I'll also note that Shoko will handle them fine if they show up correctly in the XML dumps, and we have no other way to distinguish if the relation should be an alt. setting or alt. version through any of the available APIs that 3rd party clients can use except the HTTP API which brokenly map both as alt. setting.

Found out relation data is available in their UDP API too, and supposedly mapped correctly (edit/note: I still haven't verified it is mapped correctly). Don't know if we want to go the route to use it to verify/correct the relations from the HTTP API, but it is a option. The best option would be that they fix their HTTP API, but I don't think that is going to happen any time soon (though feel free to prove me wrong, AniDB).
