Every TV show is called "Your Show Of Shows" in Jellyfin??? - Hayden - 2025-06-27

For the life of me, I cannot figure out how to get Jellyfin to properly index any TV show. I have two libraries; "Shows" and "Movies." When this happens to Movies, nothing shows up under "Shows" at all. When Movies has correct metadata, then everything in the "Shows" library displays as a 1950's TV show titled "Your Show of Shows." All of my media plays correctly, but I have to memorize how many episodes each TV show has in order to locate the desired show.

I've tried:
  • Removing special characters from file / folder names
  • Changing where my media-containing folders are stored
  • Deleting the libraries, then re-creating them
  • Re-titling all my files to have clearer names with dates included
  • Changing metadata providers
  • Deleting the cache folder in %ProgramData%\Jellyfin\Server\Cache

My system:
  • Dell PowerEdge T430
  • Jellyfin for Windows (EXE, thankfully I'm not using Docker for this)
  • Windows 11 LTSC
  • 4x8TB Software RAID via Stablebit Drivepool

Following the documentation on folder structure and naming conventions should help you out:

Try putting your TV shows in sub folders to separate them . Shows > The Wire (2002) for example. It's even best to put them also in season folders. Shows > The Wire (2002) > Season 1 > etc. Because you haven't done this Jellyfin thinks that all of your episodes belong to a series called "Shows" & is matching everything inside that folder as "Your Show of Shows"
