Adding Series - 4BYE - 2024-12-31
Hi, I come from VideoStation that wasn't supported anymore on the latest DiskStation update. I don't have problems with movies, but with the TV Series it's not possible to get the different seasons correct. I have JRiver Media Center as my main library for movies, series and music.
My setup for series is:
folder: 2 Broke Girls Season 1
It contains: 01. Pilot.mkv | 01. Pilot.jpg | and some files for Jellyfin and MediaCenter
I added my Series folder to Jellyfin but all 6 seasons of "2 Broke Girls" are treated as the same season.
They aren't in order of the season/year and all episodes 1 have the same story added.
It's too much work to manually change that and I can't change the setup that is used by JRiver Media Center too.
I have seen the scheme for series that is optimal, but isn't there anything else I can do to make mine work?
Thanks for your time!

From the information you provided, it sounds like your folder structure and file naming does not conform to our documentation.

That link contains examples of how Jellyfin expects files to be named and organized.
