This is not really a bug as it's just how $num has historically come to be. The file name templates are pretty inflexible, overall.
Oh, I didn't know, I just found this program and when I saw that the parameter was there, it said $num for the number, I expected a number not [00]. I will have to do a fork or look for another program since Jellyfin or Plex do not detect the number with [ ] sorry for the inconvenience, thank you.
Yeah, you're right. I don't remember exactly why square brackets are there, but I remember it was intended. It's not the best design, admittedly.
I think you should be able to strip the brackets in all files using a simple shell script or using some batch rename tool.
The issue was that I didn't want to use other tools. After looking at several tools, in the end I decided to compile a version without the square brackets since with these it was no longer a number, it took 2 seconds and it works perfectly with all the combinations.
Whether you decide to change it or not, you can close the issue, thank you.
I added an undocumented $numc token that doesn't include []
