my home screen is usualy most shows showing up like the middle picture, but some show like the 3rd pic then go into the seccond, then the first. if that makes sense

How are your shows organized and what library type is this?
Can you give some example file/folder names and paths?
RE: folder in folder - keida - 2024-03-15
i have the files on an unraid server. the file path for .hack//sign is
Z:\torrents\hack SIGN\Season 1
and has the folder in folder as seen above.
How ever ancient magus bride has a similer path and does not work the same way. it just shows the nice dvd look then opens into all the meta data about actors and show description. that file path is
Z:\torrents\The Ancient Magus' Bride\Season 2

What library type is this? A shows library or mixed library?

Yeah. That explains it. That wouldn't happen in a Shows or Movies library. The mixed library is a legacy feature that is not currently well supported and behaves weirdly. We generally recommend keeping shows and movies in their own separate dedicated library type.
