Episodes from two versions of series appearing in both series - AndRoo - 2024-04-27
Good evening!
I have been having an issue for a while with series combining their episodes together.
I have 2 folders in my Tv Shows folder, one of them is called "The Office (US) (SuperFan) (2020) [tmdbid-250607]" and the other is called "The Office US (2005) [tmdbid-2416]".
However, in Jellyfin, although there is 2 series for The Office and the Office SuperFan, when I enter either one of the series, all of the episodes appear right next to each other in the seasons.
I am trying to keep the series completely separate and I don't know what else to do.
I have tried identifying each series to their respective series and it does not change anything.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you!

Try renaming the SuperFan folder to "The Office SuperFan [tmdbid-250607]". I'm wondering if the parentheses aren't being picked up as being part of the name so it just sees "The Office" and merges them.

After letting Jellyfin do its thing it has ended up the same way as before.
One file is named "The Office SuperFan [tmdbid-250607]" and the other is named "The Office US (2005) [tmdbid-2416]".
They are both identified correctly in Jellyfin, but the episodes still appear in both series.

I don't know why this specifically worked.
But all I did was rename the superman folder to "The Office Superfan Episodes (2021) [tmdbid-250607]" and deleted the tvshow.nfo file in the folder and it fixed itself.
