Navigate by Folder Structure - dermosi - 2024-04-09
Hi,
I am a newbie with Jellyfin and trying to find out whether I can use it as replacement for Kodi - specially the central database across several devices.
Is there a way of navigating my movie files by folder structure?
I.e. I have arranged all my movie files with the following logic:
videos/ entertainment
videos/ romance
videos/ action
...
Now, I do not want all the videos to be shown in one screen only, but so that I can first select the relevant folder.
Thanks for your help,
Christof

TLDR; no. Not with the movies or shows library types.
If you MUST have Jellyfin only show the folder structure you should use the Music Video library type, but you lose metadata.
