Avoid recursive scan possible? - geohei - 2025-06-04 Hi. Is it possible to tell Jellyfin to avoid recursive scan of directories inside a library? I didn't find an option. Thanks, RE: Avoid recursive scan possible? - crobibero - 2025-06-04 Not sure what you're looking to do really, but you can exclude directories like so https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/media/excluding-directory/ Jellyfin 10.11 will have expanded exclude functionality as well RE: Avoid recursive scan possible? - geohei - 2025-06-08 Basically, my file/folder structure looks like this:
The Series are inside the Movies directory. .ignore is a flag for all libraries, in my case Serie 01 .If .ignore is used, it applies to all libraries.I would like to be able to manually enable/disable individual folders for specific library only. - One library for the Movies, where I exclude all Shows - One library for the Shows, where I exclude all Movies I guess I that's not possible, so I'll wait until 10.11. Before restructuring my entire media tree, I'd like to make sure that I fully understand the Jellyfin possibilities/options in this respect. RE: Avoid recursive scan possible? - crobibero - 2025-06-08 That will not be supported in 10.11 either Please follow our documented naming convention for Jellyfin to work properly. |
