I'm working on Batman, the Animated Series. It looks like TMDB and IMDB have the air order, which most agree is inferior to the production order. Without getting into all of the reasons of why I prefer production order, I basically want to manually point each episode entry in Jellyfin to the right metadata page on IMDB, but I'm having some problems with that...
My filename for the first episode is: S01E01 On Leather Wings.mkv
On IMDB, the ID for that episode is: tt0519608
...but because the first episode in the IMDB order is "The Cat and the Claw Pt. 1" it points to this ID by default: tt0519626
I can go into the metadata for that episode, and swap out tt0519626 to be tt0519608 instead, but if I then try to go refresh the metadata, all it does it overwrite the new ID with the old one and pull the wrong thumbnail and wrong metadata again.
Is there any way to point an episode to a different IMDB ID, and pull the metadata for that NEW ID? I really don't want to rename all of my episodes to the wrong order just so Jellyfin will pull the right metadata, then manually change the episode number in Jellyfin.
