Fixing episode ordering?

[elephantLYFE]

Ultimately, i think.
1st - identify the DB & ordering, you want to match, pull metadata.
2nd - prepare your files/structure to match that.
3rd - make sure metadata tag matches, let jellyfin scan it, then also make sure ORDER prefrence matches.

I think default is
Movies/Shows - TMDB

you probably want to add a plugin for TVDB, for Shows.

You can add tags to media, denoting which DB to pull from.
Film (2010) [imdbid-tt0106145].mp4 or Film (201 [tmdbid-65567]
You must ensure you have a plugin for that correspoinding db.

Example TVDB i added a plugin. Film (201 [TVDBID-XXXXXX]

In addion to this, DBs can have alternate orderings listed for a a show.
Air date, DVD Order, Alternate Order, etc.
