Odd naming behaviour with series which have pilots - Ghostly_Ghost - 2023-08-16
Hi guys,
I've put this here as I think it's connected to Identification / Metadata.
I have a UK TV series on my Jellyfin (Waking the Dead, if that helps). The first series has two pilot episodes - ie one episode split over two separate episodes - and then eight other episodes (all two-parters).
No matter how I name the Pilot episodes - and I've tried putting them in a separate folder called Series 00 - it knocks all the other episodes naming out. Here's a two screenshots to explain, one from Jellyfin and the other my naming set-up on my Pi.
Help! It's driving me round the twist

Hey @Ghostly_Ghost
All series have an attribute that allows you to change the Series type. Try setting that to "aired" or another type.
"Edit Metadata" -> "Display order:"

Pilot part 1 should be S01E01 and part 2 S01E02 then rename other episodes to suit as per https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/4860-waking-the-dead/season/1

Awsome!! Thank you, it's driven me crazy! I thought I'd tried that but obviously not.
Cheers guys
