Also for shows, if you have a show with only one season, I would still give it a season folder. Jellyfin doesn't show you all the episodes without the episodes being in a season folder.
Its Kinda both really, it got the wrong metadata from when i first time made the folder and when i try to get the metadata from all the subfolders, so when i go to get metadata it says queed up but nothing helps after that.

Parent added to jellyfin should be shows
inside the shows folder you should have a folder name of the show title itself
season folders are optional and i find they don't add anything for scraping, all mine are flat with all the episodes in the 1 main folder
flat will prevent extras from being added though so if you have trailers and whatnot then flat is not the way to go
if you're using this with Anime you might find that the TMDB scraper is the problem and you should try switching to TVDB
as i understand it tvdb is more friendly to Anime
either case you should search your show on the site you are using and check naming against what they have listed
https://www.themoviedb.org
https://thetvdb.com
Does the file name matter at all or can it work with just the show name and S01E01 in the folder and work off of that, or can it work off of S01E01 and the episode name. I also like to devide the shows between live action and anime just for my sake but are you suggesting that my issue could be that I cant have Anime,Adult,and Cartoon under a folder named T.V shows or do i need the change the folder name to Shows.
