How can I specify guest stars in .nfo? - zikkrin - 2025-11-19
Most of my series have sections for "cast & crew" and "guest stars" for each episode page, and as far as I can tell, all the data is pulled from TMDb. However, there are times when things don't look quite right to me...or at least not as I want them to be. Is there a way to specify in an .nfo file who should appear under the "cast & crew" vs "guest stars"? All I'm seeing from the .nfo documentation is a tag for actors and a quick test indicates everyone I put there just shows up as "cast & crew".
The impetus for my question is that I'd like only the series regulars who appear in an episode to appear under "cast & crew", not all cast and crew from the entire season. I see this is just how TMBd does credits though, so not really a Jellyfin issue.
