Also, do you have any custom CSS or themes applied?
Nope, my custom CSS box is empty. Also default theme.
Could be any addon?

I have an idea, but I need to know something before I start going down this rabbit hole.
How many collections do you have?

Hahaha. I only have one collection, the one I showed you on the first page. "Barbie Collection"

I'll have to do some testing when I get home tonight. I'll get back to you tonight or tomorrow (US EST).

No problem. If you need access to my Jellyfin I can create an account for you, but I will need to contact you privately.
I'm from Spain so UTC+1
Thank you for taking the trouble.

Ok. Open your dev console again and repeat the process of adding a movie. But you only need to open the prompt to add a movie to a collection. In the dev console I want you to click the line that pops up right when you open the prompt.
The one that contains "IncludeItemTypes=BoxSet". It will move you over to the Sources tab and display the contents of what should be in your collection drop down.
What do you see?

Well, mine is a bit empty.

Go ahead and submit a github issue for this. This sounds like a bug.

Ok, I've found the problem.
For some reason in "Settings > Libraries > Collections > Enable Library" it must be enabled.
I had it disabled so it wouldn't appear on the main page, however it does appear inside the folder where those videos are.
When I turn Collections back on it does appear in the list to add more videos there.
So that it doesn't continue to appear on the main page I will disable it again, and when I need to add videos I will temporarily enable it.
I was going to write the bug on github anyway, but it seemed too complicated, I think I'll leave it for another time.

You can hide collections from the home screen without disabling the collections library.
Settings > Home
