new episode shows in "recently added" but not in "next up" - chenks - 2025-04-04

got a strange issue that i can only assume is a settings issue somewhere.

whenever a new episode of a tv show is added, jellyfin picks up that it has been added and it shows up in the "recently added" row, however it won't show up in the "next up" row until i do a manual "scan media library" (or it runs as per the schedule).

in the library settings i have "enable realtime monitoring" enabled (and it's obviosuly working otherwise the episode wouldn't show up in the "recently added" row).

have i missed a setting somwhere?

"Scan all libraries" does additional tasks that real time monitoring does not do.

IIRC, real time monitoring will just add the new file and retrieve metadata. But other tasks that "next up" relies on are not done.

"Next up" is getting a major rework in 10.11. The PRs I'm aware of relating to the Next Up rework don't explicitly mention this issue so I can't say for certain whether or not they fix your specific issue. They might, but we'll have to wait and see.

that's a pain as i only do a scheduled scan once every 12 hours.
i'd rather not be doing a full scan every 30 minutes / 1 hour as that seems excessive just to get something to appear on next up.

what changes are coming for next up?

This PR is the Next Up rework I mentioned.

I'm not a dev so I can't break down what exactly they're doing other than it is a fairly substantial change to the mechanisms used for populating "Next Up".
