seeking error on naming convention - SkinnyBruv - 2024-02-01

G'day everyone,

Could someone please verify this naming convention? I have recently encountered an issue where some files are not populating using the IMDB meta tool,
Right now, I'm solely using IMDb, but am considering incorporating TVmaze or other suggestions,

Movies encountered:
  • F9 (2021) [imdbid-tt5433138]/F9 (2021) [imdbid-tt5433138] - 1080p.mp4
    F9 (2021) [imdbid-tt5433138]/F9 (2021) [imdbid-tt5433138] - 1080p.srt
    JellyFin Result: F9 (2021) [imdbid-tt5433138]

Shows encountered:
  • Slow Horses (2022) [imdbid-tt5875444]/Season 01/S01E01 Failure's Contagious - 720p.mkv
    JellyFin Result: Slow Horses (2022) [imdbid-tt5875444]
  • Fellow Travelers (2023) [imdbid-tt15384586]/Season 01/S01E01 You're Wonderful - 1080p.mkv
    JellyFin Result: Fellow Travelers (2023) [imdbid-tt15384586]
  • NCIS Sydney (2023) [imdbid-tt18258908]/Season 01/S01E01 Gone Fission - 1080p.mkv
    JellyFin Result: NCIS Sydney (2023) [imdbid-tt18258908]

Any fix, suggestions or improvements would be greatly appreciated!

No response required.

The issue has been resolved; the router was blocking the server from accessing the WAN.

The IMDB ID shouldn't be in the file name. Only the folder name.

Also, you should be using TMDB IDs since IMDB doesn't have an open API and Jellyfin is reliant on TMDB/TVDB mapping the IMDB you provide to the correct TMDB ID.

You can also try manually identifying it.
