Formatting shows with folders containing multiple seasons - Wraaath - 2024-01-09
Hello.
When I download my shows I often find versions with multiple seasons, say season 1 to season 20, and then download the newer seasons separately, but I have noticed Jellyfin isnt so happy with that formatting.
A structure could look like this:
Show (xxxx)
- Season 01 to Season 20
-- Season 01
--- s01e01
-- Season 02
--- s02e01
...
- Season 21
-- s21e01
...
Still Jellyfin will usually thor everything from Season 01 to Season 20 into a Season 1, and just not find the right metadata for the seasons.
**Mod edit: TMI**, so I can only really rename them, and not move files around.
I wanted to ask if anyone had any solution to this, or a different way of doing it
/Thanks

TLDR, you're SOL. The only thing I can think of is to use symlinks or something with the proper folder structure, but that is a lot of manual work.
