             Disk1 v02.mkv

             Disk2 v01.mkv

             Disk2 v02.mkv

    I did that now for the 3 Pirate movies I have, and while it is not very elegant to rename files in such a way, it works!
    Many thanks.

    Do you have an idea how to handle separate extra DVDs?

    I mean, for the Alien Quadrupology and for the Back to the Futures movies, there is an extra DVD that does NOT belong to one of the movies, but is completely separate - it may contain stuff for all of the movies, or separate from the movies.
    This should normally be in it's own folder ... but this does not work in Jellyfin!

    When I put all the content into a sub-folder EXTRAS, they do not appear at all - as there is no movie in this directory (not even in Folder mode).
    But when I just have them directly in a folder, all the little video files show up as regular movies, which is of course even worse.

    Thinking about this, I see no solution for this problem.
    It seems, folders are nothing that is liked by Jellyfin ;-)

    To use such DVDs at all, it seems that I need to rename according to you idea and add the extra DVD to one of the movie folders, which is logically wrong ... but otherwise it does not work at all.
