Hello,
I recently started using Jellyfin and my goal is to stream BDMVs without converting them to MKVs.
I'm pleased to see that Jellyfin does in fact scan whatever I throw at it under the Season directory of a show and extracts all the files from the BDMV/STREAM directory.
The problem with this is that it displays both the episodes and the extra BD stuff, warnings, ads, etc. I'm not expecting some wizardry to magically hide and sort those, I'm fine with manually managing the thing and setting the metadata to correct what are extras, what are episodes and whatnot, but unfortunately I don't really have a way to "hide" all the unnecessary BD tracks such as ads; this means that at the end of the day I end up with a season of a show having 50+ episodes, when in reality it's about 12.
Is this already doable?
(I understand that it's a "weird" feature, and if it doesn't exist it would probably make sense to invest a bit more time into sorting out BDMVs (excluding tracks shorter than 2 min like MakeMKV does) rather than "patching up" the thing with an exclude episode feature.
Thanks in advance!
