How can I prevent updating the year field? - Druidblack - 2024-08-12

Good afternoon. How can it prohibit changing the data in the "Year" field for TV series? I tried to turn off all the checkboxes sequentially, to prohibit changing individual fields. Only a complete ban on changes helps, but then when adding new seasons or episodes, the metadata is not updated.

Is 2024 incorrect? The only way I can think of is to use NFOs and make the NFOs read only to the jellyfin user.

An example picture. I use tubearchivist. And when he adds metadata, he does not add the year to the release. Due to the lack of a year in the release, the Jellyfin Update Poster application throws an error.
Thanks for the advice. Try to create an nfo file for each release.
