SOLVED: Metadata reading not using root path?

Metadata for shows is sometimes using a Season subfolder instead of the root

Adding each show as a root is not supported. Jellyfin does not take into account the root folder's name when constructing the query for metadata.

For what you are trying to achieve, using symlinks for each show folder would work. Jellyfin will follow symlinks for folders but not for files.

Jellyfin 10.10.7 (Docker)
Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS w/HWE
Intel i3 12100
Intel Arc A380
OS drive - SK Hynix P41 1TB
Storage
4x WD Red Pro 6TB CMR in RAIDZ1
