    I don’t have the best file hygiene. Right now I’ve got a bunch of small drives acting as my “server” (it was supposed to be temporary, but it’s already been 2 years). Since I also download stuff in my own language, the files end up kind of messy. To get a complete season, I often need to download different episodes of the same show from different sources.

    Because of that, I often have TV shows split across two drives, and sometimes single episodes sitting in their own separate folder.

    Long story short, my shows are all split up without any real logic in Jellyfin. I even have single episodes showing up alone in the “Show” section. It’s really annoying, and I didn’t have this problem with Plex. (I know...)
    Is there anything I can do besides checking “Automatically merge series that are spread across multiple folders” and manually cleaning up my whole library?

    Worth giving this a try. Replace "TV Shows" with whatever library these are part of.

    I already have this enabled and it still looks like this.
