    Naming parity with Plex

    Allowing Plex's naming conventions will improve adoption.

    YES! This is exactly the problem I'm having. I want to give Jellyfin a go, but I need Plex to function as well. I can't just start renaming all the files.

    Someone suggested symlinks named correctly fro Jellyfin and pointing to the Plex-friendly files, but this would take forever to do manually. If there were a plugin or script that could watch the Plex folder and auto-create symlinks in another directory to make Jellyfin happy, that'd be AWESOME.

    Otherwise, I think it's a great idea for Jellyfin to embrace, at least as an option, the Plex naming schemes. I think they'd see a lot more users flocking to Jellyfin if they did.
