Seasons in wrong order - Spooky - 2024-01-23
I'm having a problem where the seasons are out of order, but only for a couple of shows. Unfortunately I haven't found any information on this problem. This happens on web as well as on the apps. Does anyone have an idea how to fix that?

it's alphabetical so Se comes before St
open the show, click the 3 dots under the season, Edit Metadata, change it to match either Season or Staffel whichever you prefer
if the question is why did it scrape that way; do you have nfo files in those locations?
RE: Seasons in wrong order - Spooky - 2024-01-23
I'm pretty sure that's not the solution as I have other examples that are out of order (see attached screenshot). The folders are also named correctly, so all season inside a tv show are named season 0x.
Edit: Checking on the sorting titles. But why would jellyfin assign wrong sorting titles to seasons? Emby and Plex both handled all shows correctly.
Edit 2: For the second example title and sorting titles are not different, but some do not have a sorting title and this causes the problem which, actually seems a little weird to me as a sorting title is usually only needed if it is different from the title.
Yes I do use nfos. Will try and look into setting up jellyfin without them.

emby and plex are both corporate software which have paid developers so there's at least 1 reason they might do something a little better

Does the metadata source you are using only have season info in your language up to season 4? No native language metadata for season 5?
RE: Seasons in wrong order - Spooky - 2024-01-23
You're not wrong about that, but in the season metadata there is also a field for season number, shouldn't that be the sorting field?

No, all metadata is german.
