That should still work, the wiki suggests that that is the correct thing
to do[0].

A possible workaround if it is failing...

The wiki would also suggest that episodes are tagged with the
<episodeshort> as title by default[1], which is simply the episode name
minus the episode number.

You can change the title using the --tag-format-title detailed in the
tagging options and choose the field to apply from the substitution
parameters[2]. From that substitution parameter list you should be able
to construct a suitable result, chaining parameters together if you wish.

So you could try:

--tag-format-title <title>

That would seemingly achieve the same thing --tag-fulltitle would but
via a different route.
