    So basically i got 2 movies that're giving me headaches in terms of scanning

    Watchmen (Chapter I and Chapter II; 2024)
    (IMBD tt32627540, tt32627545)

    Nymphomaniac (Vol. i and Vol. II, 2013)
    (There's also Theatrical and Directors Cuts)
    (IMBD tt1937390, tt2382009)


    Previously i'm using KODI before i started using JF. And since my <sets> and IMDB codes were correct; all my movies were sorted and "foldered" correctly inside KODI. Its only in JellyFin i've noticed that; IF a movie has the Same YEAR AND same titles; they all end up in the same movie as SEPARATE VERSIONS. *(refer to attached screenshots; using NYmph()maniac as a reference).

    I'm slightly aware that my setup is slightly deviate from defined proper setup ; but since it works; i havent changed (Imagine just easier copying an entire folder collection of James bond instead of searching for each movie individually). Its my understanding that the NFO file dictates the movie content first and foremost; and i believe JF still follows this. But i've never encountered this problem whereby JF thinks its all the same movie when it can be seen by my NFO file i've stated Vol I and II are separate IMDB codes *(Except the directors and theatrical cuts).

    To be fair; i know its working because Batman the Long halloween (Part I and II and Complete; IMDB tt14324650, tt14402926, tt21445686) are separated and listed as 3 separate movies instead of 1 version like Nymphomanaic and Watchmen.

    I've even tried adding 1 movie at a time into the folders and scanned each time after adding; and somehow JF seems to merge them into the 1 version when i'm trying to break them into 2-4 separate movies. *(This isnt like LOTR BluRays Extended versions whereby the movie is on 2 blurays with a DISC 1 and DISC 2. These are 2-4 separate movie files.)

    TLGrinning-faceR - Batman the long halloween is scanned as 3 separate movies (which is correct). Nymph()maniac and Watchmen is scanned and listed as 1 movie with several versions (when in fact its several separate movies like batman). Refer to screenshots for an idea of the problem. Where am i going wrong here?
