Episode Based Extras - cookieflips - 2025-08-17

Hi! So I'm slowly migrating to Jellyfin and I have a bit of an odd situation. The show Rick and Morty comes with extras that are not registered in TVDB. At the same time, these extras consists of various clips ranging from per season behind the scenes, and per episode animatics/deleted content.

https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/media/shows/ Based on this, I'm guessing Jellyfin doesn't support per-episode-extras yet. Plex on the other hand does, but I could never get it working properly because it was really rigid about naming schemes. I'm stuck here wondering how best to handle the situation during my migration to Jellyfin? Do I just chuck all of these into an extras folder and rename them based on their episode name? Thanks!

RE: Episode Based Extras - bitmap - 2025-08-18

Your intuition is correct -- per-episode extras are not supported currently. Your plan of renaming and having an extras folder is likely the best route to go at this point.
