My Jellyfin uses metadata from TheMovieDB as the first choice, which I believe was the default, but theMovieDB no longer has it under the series that (re)started in 2005. I had to click on the 3-dots menu on the series and select "identify", then set it to the brand new series that TheMovieDB has for the reboot: https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/239770-doctor-who. Search for "Doctor Who" and choose the series with Ncuti Gatwa on the poster instead of the tardis. They are s00e01, s00e02, etc.
It looks like the theMovieDB will have the forthcoming season as s01 in that series. I would hope there's a way to name the files and directories to automatically detect the new series, but I don't know what it is. Out of curiosity, I tried naming a directory "Doctor Who (2023)" and "Doctor Who 2023" and the files as "Doctor.Who.2023.s00e01", but it still assigned it to the 1963 series.
I did check theTVDB first, before checking my metadata sources, since that was what I had Plex using (just switched to Jellyfin on a homelab a few weeks ago and I LOVE it!). TheTVDB has them as e.g. s00e162 in the 2005 series: https://thetvdb.com/series/doctor-who-20...official/0
The only other source option I see in the Jellyfin settings is omdbapi.com. Perhaps there they are s14e01 in the 2005 series, and perhaps enesha has that as their first choice and that's why that naming worked for enesha. I don't feel like getting an api key just to investigate.
