Separate Movies Sections within Collection - Ahsoka - 2025-10-30
I currently have a collection that is pulling items from three different libraries: Movies, Series, and Short Films(Movies). The issue I'm having is that the collection will group the items from the Movies library and the Short Films library together since the Short Films library is also coded as a Movies library. Is it possible to have the Short Films and Movies separated in a Collection like how Movies and Series are separated? Thanks for any help!

I don't think that is possible since the "group movies into collections" option is only available at the system level and not for each individual library.
You could use the Mixed Movies and Shows library and turn off automatically group Collections but you will have to make the folder for each collection and look up a cover photo on TheMovieDB.

I don't have the "Group Movies into Collections" selected in my display settings and setting the Short Films library as a mixed library didn't seem to change anything.
The item highlighted in red in the below image is the item from the Short Films (Movies) library that I was hoping to get to show up in a separate section, like Movies/Series, within the collection.
