Problem with grabbing IMDB metadata - angelskin - 2025-10-07
Hi, I'm having trouble with the pilot episode from Limmy's Show.
On IMDB it's listed as episode 0 of season 1, so that's how I named it, every other episode grabs metadata fine but this episode doesn't. I tried renaming it with the IMDB ID in the filename but it doesnt seem to have made a difference.
Here is how my directory is structured:
Code:

The IMDb ID is used solely to identify the series or movie as a whole, not individual episodes. Also, keep in mind that Jellyfin doesn’t pull metadata from IMDb. Its default metadata provider is TMDb, so you’ll need to make sure it matches what’s listed there.
Episode 0 appears to be the pilot episode: https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/32056-limmy-s-show/season/0/episode/1?language=en-US
