    Jellyfin would show whatever it retrieves from TMDB/TVDB/your preferred metadata DB. All the extra resolution, codec tags in the file name are ignored. When it scans the file with ffprobe it will retrieve all that information and it will display in the UI the codec, resolution, etc.

    Having said that, we generally recommended removing all those tags since A) they are ignored by Jellyfin for the purposes of tagging and B) they are NOT ignored for the purposes of identification of the show/movie and can sometimes cause identification issues.

    The exception being when you follow our syntax for "multiple versions" of a movie.
    Jellyfin 10.10.7 (Docker)
    Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS w/HWE
    Intel i3 12100
    Intel Arc A380
    OS drive - SK Hynix P41 1TB
    Storage
        4x WD Red Pro 6TB CMR in RAIDZ1
