RE: Seemingly Random Folders Disappear - Karmalakas - 2024-08-16
Yep, identifying by IDs seem to help. But there's still an issue - almost 200 movies are missing completely and I have no idea which ones, unless I go one by one through a 1k movie library

Install the Reports plugin from the catalog. Once it's set up, you'll find a Reports menu on your dashboard that lets you export your library to an Excel file. This will help you spot any misidentified movies. For better management, I also suggest using tinyMediaManager to create NFO files.

Thanks for the suggestion, but it seems Reports are broken - ordering by path doesn't work, so it's pretty much useless for my specific case of identifying missing movies
But even then I'd have to go through each folder and check which paths are missing. And even if I find them, how do I know what to change to make Jellyfin find them?

From the report menu, click the three vertical dots to open the side menu. Change "Page size" to "All", then wait for the page to refresh. Once refreshed, export the data to Excel, where you can sort by path.
