Change metadata location? - Pyrofunto - 2025-05-25
Hey everyone, I just moved my hard drives to another computer and had to restart a jellyfin server. However, it automatically created new metadata folders for my media on the C: drive. I already have all the metadata from the previous server on another drive, is there any way for me to tell him to just use the existing folders? A lot of that metadata was made manually and I really don't want to have to do it all again. Worst case, if I can't move the metadata folders, can I just copy the old ones into the new ones and have it all work?
To be precise, I changed a lot of movie titles, and especially sorting titles and even if I can't change the location of the metadata can anyone tell me where can i get it from the old server to copy into the new one so I don't have to manually do it all again.
Thanks!
