<runtime> from NFO-Files of Dummy-Files - ervau - 2025-04-26
Hello!
I'm using Jellyfin as a library for all my movies.
I have movies as "real" MP4-Files and Discs (Blurays).
For the Discs I use "Dummy-Files" in the libraries - these are empty 0-kB files with the title of the movie as filename.
The Informations of the movies I'm scraping with tinyMediaManager into NFO-Files (named as the movies).
So every movie (MP4 or Disc) has it's NFO-File.
Jellyfin looks for all NFO-Files and builds its libraries. That's working fine: Every movie is in Jellyfin.
Now here's my problem:
Only MP4-Movies show a Runtime (Length of the movie).
The Dummy-Files don't use the <runtime> of the NFO-Files.
How can I see the Runtime of the Disc-Movies in Jellyfin, too?
Does anyone know?
(I even tried to write the <runtime> into the Jellyfin library.db by a script written by ChatGPT. But nothing works.
While there is no MP4-File, I don't get a Runtime in Jellyfin - it seems...)
Thank you so much!
