auto add movies to collection by director? - Kushal Goaten - 2023-10-21 hello was wondering if I can set up collections to add movies to it automatically based on the director of the movie. e.g all Wes Anderson Movies in a collection. RE: auto add movies to collection by director? - jimmyjammy - 2023-10-21 Hi Kushal, I don't think that there is any auto- collection functionality yet for Jellyfin but if you do a general search for any director Jellyfin will bring up all of their Movies/Shows & that will always update as you add more titles. I use "Favorites" for "Director" & "Actor/Actress" collections. You can "favorite" as many people as you'd like & this sort of creates auto-updating collections for them. Their Images will appear under "People" on your "Favorites" page & if you click on that image it will bring up all of the movies/shows you have by them hope this helps ! - I, too, am a big Wes Anderson fan. Cheers, RE: auto add movies to collection by director? - TheDreadPirate - 2023-10-21 AFAIK, this is not a behavior built into Jellyfin. And I can't find any plugins that would do this in the same way that the TMDB Boxset plug does.
