Recent user of Jellyfin and big fan already. Many thanks to the developers for that great software...
As far as I understand, the media codec information that can be seen on a movie page by clicking on the 3 dots and selecting "Media Info" is originally created from the first library scan by using ffprobe. Is that correct ? Under that assumption, I updated ffmpeg from v5 to v6 in my docker installation, as I read that V6 was able to probe atmos or DTS:X, hoping that it would bring the ability to display "TrueHD with Dolby Atmos" instead of "TrueHD" for example. I tried to scan the whole library but this does not seem to launch any new codec scanning. I don't want to change the library's metadata (identification, genres, tags, posters, logo, backdrop) so I unchecked these for my whole libray through the API. Does anyone know if there is a way to refresh the codec information only ?
