Keeping 1:1 rip mkv and small mkv same movie naming scheme - crazydrve - 2024-10-24

Hello,

Lately ive been liking keeping two versions of same movie,

ie

Aliens (2009) - Special.Edition - 2160p - 65GB
Aliens (2009) - Special.Edition - 2160p.web - 5GB

I am trying to find a good naming scheme, I was wondering if others do the same thing?

You can use the "versions" syntax to have both under one listing.

https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/media/movies/#multiple-versions-of-a-movie

Keep in mind that your folder name needs to match the file names prior to the "version" naming.

Code:
Movies/Aliens Special Edition (2009)/Aliens Special Edition (2009) - 2160P.mkv
Movies/Aliens Special Edition (2009)/Aliens Special Edition (2009) - 2160P Web.mkv

That is how I would name the files. This will result in one listing with a drop down to select which version you want to watch.

alien
aliens
aliens 3
etc.

Nevermind, I think I just need to make folders for each
