Addon guide asks to name a file with ':' but it isn't possible. Can't upload TV episodes. #207

In section 6 of the generic addon guide, there's a part where you need to put ':' in a file name, however, it's not possible on Windows. image By the way, Stremio specifically asks for a ':' to be used in the name file: (%3A is ':' in HTML) image How can I fix this? Is it a bug?

No, this is not a bug, the docs are just suggesting to use colon (:), because the Cinemeta official addon uses it, colon is only an invalid character for filename on Windows.

The video ID comes from meta.videos[].id and it can be any string of your choosing, it does not need to include a colon at all.
