RE: Jellyfin Newsletter Plugin - TheDreadPirate - 2025-02-26
Having two movie root folders is fine, the problem is the following in bold+italic+underline.
Quote:Movies > Ice Age Collection > Ice Age (2002)
Movies2 > Mr. Bean Collection > Bean (1997)
Nesting the folder a movie is stored in is not a supported way of organizing movies or shows in Jellyfin. Most of the time it will work just fine, with the occasional mis-identification in Jellyfin. But the newsletter plugin is super super strict about how things need to be organized.
You cannot deviate AT ALL from our organization and naming documentation for the newsletter plugin to work consistently.
I had brought this up with the plugin dev a while ago. But they mentioned that life obligations prevented them from working on it. I haven't checked if there are any viable forks of this plugin that are still actively maintained.

OK thanks for your help again. I think It's more important to me to have my collections neatly stored in folders than worry about the odd missing image in an email
RE: Jellyfin Newsletter Plugin - Swindiff - 2025-02-27
I set the newsletter plugin to scrape the filesystem at 09:45 and then send out the email at 10:00. This morning it did not send, so I sent it manually. Then it sent the email out at 16:08. Is this a time zone issue?
RE: Jellyfin Newsletter Plugin - TheDreadPirate - 2025-02-27
You'd have to look at your logs. I haven't used the newsletter plugin in a while, but I don't recall having any issues like you've described.
RE: Jellyfin Newsletter Plugin - Swindiff - 2025-02-28
This morning it sent out the email bang on 10am as expected. No idea what was going on yesterday
RE: Jellyfin Newsletter Plugin - Swindiff - 2025-03-01
Todays Email sent at 3:49pm. Nothing changed from yesterday. One season scanned fine and the other had a load of errors.

RE: Jellyfin Newsletter Plugin - TheDreadPirate - 2025-03-01
Which provider is your primary for this library? This is an educated guess, but I'm guessing it is TMDB? I think the problem is that TMDB treats Tom and Jerry episodes as movies. Hundreds of movies.
Because of that, there is no metadata for the plugin to retrieve for seasons and episode numbers, etc.
TVDB, on the other hand, does do seasons by year. If TVDB is not your primary metadata provider, you would need to make it your primary and then replace all metadata for Tom and Jerry.
RE: Jellyfin Newsletter Plugin - Swindiff - 2025-03-01
No I used TVDB to scrape Tom and Jerry. I also used it for Looney Tunes and that was fine in the newsletter email. All the metadata is there and seemingly correct. I do use tinymediamanager rather than Jellyfin for scraping all my metadata though. Would that matter? Confused as to the vastly differing times for the emails to be sent out.
RE: Jellyfin Newsletter Plugin - Swindiff - 2025-04-17
In the last couple of days this plugin has stopped sending out the newsletter. Test emails are still sending OK. Is there a way to check to see if the scaping is working properly?
