    Hello everyone I am looking for help on understanding how jellyfin reads files and understands directory structure. Im having issue with it gaining metadata and reading my folders. Now i know after a few searches that folders that have seasons in them should be labeled as such "Season 01, Season 02 " And so on as well as the files being labeled as "S01E01, S02E01" that portion I understand but when it comes to retrieving metadata nothing happens and it seems i would have to do this manual which i have tried an failed at, now the meat of the problem which might be how i organized my folders were the Structure goes like so "(Drive Name ) Jellyfin:Movies/Name of movie" "Jellyfin:T.V Shows/Anime/Season 01/S01E01" If the show has a season its labeled as such if not it would just be the show with the episodes inside that folder and I have two more folders in that T.v Shows Folder which is Adult and Cartoons. Now is my folder structure or labeling causing some sort of conflict which jellyfin is not understanding or am i just doing something wrong here.
