    I also use TMDB almost exclusively, only switching TVDB for the rare case that TMDB does not have a particular DVD order.




    I also prefer NOT having NFOs and images mixed in with the media.  Not having to worry about NFOs and images in the media folder just makes backing up your data and reverting easier.

    If you needed to revert for any reason, reinstalling the old version and restoring the Jellyfin data directory backup should put you back on 10.8.13 as if nothing happened.

    What OS and install method are you using?

    Thank you, that gives me some peace of mind.  I thought we parted ways with TVDB a while back so I'm surprised that it might still be available.  I'm sure this is true of most any metadata provider, but there are times when TMDB can be very frustrating to deal with, and having a second option would be nice.

    Would you mind posting a screenshot showing where in the UI I need to turn off that TVDB "missing episodes" setting?  Post-upgrade I want to very quickly go there and disable it just in case.

    I run Jellyfin in a docker container on Synology, so I just pull the latest build whenever I upgrade.  I'll definitely be backing up my config/cache folders before proceeding.
