Hey Fam -
I'm a newbie to having or setting up a NAS and all related apps for it. I'm having some serious frustration with Jellyfin and just setting up a NAS in general. It's been way more headache and troubleshooting than I was hoping for. I'm not a very "techie" kind of guy but I'm fairly capable and have been able to research and yourtube video my way through most technical computer stuff I've tried. Figuring this out though has been though. I can not find any posts in forums that are helpful or work for my issues.
Right now I am having 2 main issues with Jellyfin I can not find answers for.
1 - Duplicates. I have tons of duplicates in my movie folder only. This does not happen in my collections folders. I can not find a way to remove them. Even when I try to individually delete them from Jellyfin the app tells me there's an error and it can't delete them. I've read about the merge versions plugin but these are not different versions. It just keeps duplicating the same movie file over and over. What's weird is it doesn't do it to every movie. Somehow some of my movies got put into snapshot folders on my QNAP filestion. Those don't seem to duplicate but I can't find a good video about sorting the files in QNAP to see if this is the reason.
2 - LAG & LOADING. So the first few days I was loading movies with only about half a dozen or somovies, Jellyfin worked fine. Now I've got maybe 2 dozen films and the loading is intolerably slow and it does not load all the movie images either on the collections folders or the movie posters in those folders. They just leave a blank space with the file name. This only happens on my TVs, not when I'm managing on my computer.
I've been burning up the search bar trying to find posts or youtube videos about how to fix this with zero luck. If anyone knows how to fix or about a post/thread that can help me fix these issue I'd be super appreciative.
