RE: Music videos not showing up as folders and only showing 1 music video in library - TheDreadPirate - 2024-11-07
Can you share the output of this command on your music video library?
Code:
tree -ugp /path/to/musicvideo/library/The an example output.
Code:
chris@rat-trap:/media/storage2$ tree -ugp segmentTesting/
[drwxrwxr-x chris chris ] segmentTesting/

Hello!
I have the same problem in the music video library (fresh installation in a container, with version 10.10.3, from lscr.io/linuxserver/jellyfin:latest).
Typically, my music videos are .mp4 files and follow the naming scheme: <Artist>\<Artist> - <Song> - <Additional Info>
Some folders show up as desired, as a list of files, with the artist as folder name. Some folders get apparently recognized as a single song with multiple "versions", where each "version" is a different file.
Now i played around a bit with the file names and here are the results:
In a folder, where all files follow the naming scheme <Artist>\<Artist> - <Some Text>, the issue occurs.
But if there is at least one file in that folder that differs from that, e.g. <Artist>\<Song> - <Some Text>, the whole folder shows up as desired.
Now i am wondering if it is somehow possible to configure the behaviour.
RE: Music videos not showing up as folders and only showing 1 music video in library - TheDreadPirate - 2024-12-02
What is probably happening is you're trigger the "merge versions" function in Jellyfin.
In your example, "<Arist>\<Song> - <Some Text>", if you removed the dash in between "song" and "some text" that should avoid "merging" the videos in that folder.

In the example <Artist>\<Song> - <Some Text> it is already working without the merging.
Previously the artist name was also part of the file name, like this: <Artist>\<Artist> - <Song>. In this case the merging will happen.
So my solution is to remove the artist name from the filename.
