Why are All Jellyfin generated files ( backdrops, .nfo, logo png, poster, etc ) in th - Bmuzammil - 2023-08-19

Why are All Jellyfin generated files ( backdrops, .nfo, logo png, poster, etc ) in the same media folder? why aren't they in a seperate folder or somewhere else? and I might have changed some settings that did this?

how do I fix this?

thanks in advance!

Dashboard / Libraries / choose the affected library (Shows, Movies, etc) click the submenu (3 dots) & choose "Manage Library" uncheck "Metadata Savers - NFO" & "Save Artwork into media folders" This will stop the process going forward. Rescan the library ( you might have to remove existing images & nfo files yourself, I forget now). As a note I actually run my library that way - has it's benefits !
