I've tried searching for this and can't find anything, but the search terms are pretty generic and are bringing up a lot. So, my apologies if I'm missing something.
It seems that if I have multiple versions of a movie, I can't split them apart if the movie title only has one word. So, I can split my versions of 'The Addams Family;' 'Alien 3;' and 'Alien: Resurrection,' but not 'Alien;' 'Alexander;' and 'Superman.' The icon isn't there when I go into the movie and it doesn't expand in the 'Metadata Manager,' either. They show as a single movie.
Is there a work around for this? My plan now is to go in, identify the movie as a different one, split it, and then re-identify it, but I really hope I don't have to do that each time. It took a little while to notice that it was only single word titles with this issue. I'm migrating from Plex and just setting up my libraries, so anything that will speed up the process of getting everything how we're all use to it would be great.
Would appreciate the help!
edit: Thought I'd add that Jellyfin is showing the # on the poster and showing the different versions to view. You just can't split them.
edit #2: Well, changing it to something else doesn't work. I changed Alexander to Julian Po and, while it changed all of the metadata, it still won't let me split the movies apart. The Merge Versions plug-in doesn't seem to do anything, either.
