Previously, I asked how to get Jellyfin to update the Library pictures after unchecking 'Save artwork into media folders' for each Library:
SOLVED: Moved pics, but they won't reload
TheDreadPirate answered:
And it seemed to work, so I marked it "Solved".
BUT... Jellyfin actually just ignored my choice to NOT save all those images in my media folders, and continues to fill them up. So: NOT solved, after all.
Best part? I had to manually ask each library to do this, for a total of 28 updates, and all I achieved was the original mess back again.
So I created an entirely NEW library, made sure its individual settings did NOT say 'Save artwork into media folders'. Jellyfin then proceeded to automatically trash that new folder with the artwork I didn't want to be stored there, even though these settings are supposedly Library-specific, and that Library had never had its setting changed.
Does anyone know how to get Jellyfin to listen to its own settings here?
