    I have been trying to set up my movie backups on Jellyfin, but I have been having a few problems with the lord of the rings. I have multiple versions of the movies in 4k, the theatrical cut and the special extended editions, but I am having trouble getting them to show up properly. The extended editions are split across two discs, so I tried using the file naming structure from the shows section of the docs, although I am not sure if I have it structured correctly, it doesn't provide an example like the docs do in other areas. When I pull up any of the movies through jellyfin I do get a version dropdown, but it only allows me to select the theatrical cut or part 1 of the extended edition. The parts are not being merged, for the fellowship of the ring the theatrical cut is 2:58 and the extended edition part 1 is 1:45, but the full extended edition should have a runtime of 3:20.

    My directory structure is:
    \Movies
         \The Lord of the Rings- The Fellowship of the Ring
              The Lord of the Rings- The Fellowship of the Ring.mkv
              The Lord of the Rings- The Fellowship of the Ring - Extended Edition part-1.mkv
              The Lord of the Rings- The Fellowship of the Ring - Extended Edition part-2.mkv

    I realize this is a fairly niche case, but the lord of the rings are a very popular series, does anyone know how to name these so that they show up correctly in Jellyfin?
