TV Shows "Extras" - troothdotcom - 2023-10-24
I looked on Jellyfin . org how to set up my folders for TV shows and followed their guide (below) and It didn't work. Instead of separating the specials from the regular episodes I instead got more episodes added to the regular season with most of them sharing the same title. I literally followed the guide below so I'm wondering has the guide below worked for you guys or how do you go about setting up your extras? Also I used the search feature but all the results showed up as empty when I tried to open them.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Can you show us the file and folder names for the show in question?

Extras are generally listed as "Specials" by the various metadata providers (TVMaze, TVDB, etc). So to get the extras to show up, you'd need to put them in "Specials" - so you'd have the Season_xx folder(s) then a Specials folder. As for what episode # a given extra would be, check the listing for the show in the metadata provider.
