About Primary Images and Bulk Locking

[theguymadmax]

You can lock an entire library by editing the option from the Metadata Manager. But there's no way I know of to multi-select and edit the metadata of multiple items at once. It's either one at a time or all items.

A better way would be to save any images next to your media. Jellyfin will not replace those images, and they always take precedence.

Ex:

Code:

Movie Library/
├── Movie 1 (2000)/
│  ├── Movie 1.mkv
│  └── folder.jpg
├── Movie 2 (2024)/
│  ├── Movie 2.mkv
│  └── folder.jpg

Recognized file names are:

Code:

poster
folder
cover
default
movie
