Some episode numbers are not retrivable from the ExtendedEpisode API.

For example: https://thetvdb.com/series/monogatari/episodes/4590178

The episode number is retrivable for Aired Order, DVD Order and Absolute Order.

However, the episode number for Book Order is not retrievable.

Note sure how the custom naming works but it is "alternate" order. You can actually see the order when you hover on the link.

Hi, yes I am aware that Book Order for that is listed as alternate order in the api. However, in ExtendedEpisodeRecord, it only provides number (Aired Order episode number). The other ordering episode values are not exposed.

absoluteNumber (Absolute order episode number) is only exposed on the EpisodeBaseRecord.
