First install, immediately hit a snag - Seb - 2024-11-13

Hello! Noob, here with some problems. New install, v10.10.1 on Win10 Home 22H2. I thought I would try Jellyfin on a couple of shows. The files comply with the naming and structure convention; tmdbid included in the folder name. They have all been updated correctly with MKV Tag Editor using TheMovieDB lookup. For a series of about 25 episodes of a US show, Jellyfin shows about 5 episodes of something Chinese. I tried it with a number of different titles and dozens of episodes, and I have yet to get a single one correctly identified. I have re-scanned the folders, I have dumped the meta and started afresh several times. No dice.  I feel like I must be doing something very silly. What's going on?

Hope someone can offer some pointers! Cheers!

Provide your library structure and naming scheme for the folder and files.

Ignore all that, it seems that it's very important where you point JF as the root of the structure.
