    I've read the documentation multiple times, and tried this in numerous ways - none of which work! 

    I'm using a Jellyfin version (10.10.7) on my Synology NAS. The "Movies" library works fine - it has from the beginning (for me about a month ago). However, I now have some TV shows I want to add. The docs say that tv shows should be added in a different library... so that's what I've tried to do.

    Initially, I added the Shows library under the "movies" share on my SynologyNAS. The tv shows show up under movies, but the metadata is screwy. Anyway, I could not get any of the uploaded files to appear in the "shows" library. So I decided to try a dedicated share on the NAS for Shows.

    I created a dedicated share on my NAS. I called it "movtvshows", and it's under "volume1" on the NAS ("movies" is also under "volume1"). IAW the docs, I created a new library w/ Content Type "Shows" in the "movtvshows" share from the "Dashboard, Libraries, Add Media Library", and named it "tvShows".  I created a folder named "X Files", and a subfolder under that named "Season 4". I've uploaded a single video file (mkv) under the "Season 4" folder: "XFilesS4_2-Home C1_t01.mkv". 

         

    However, when I go to the main page of the Jellyfin webserver on Synology under "My Media", I see absolutely NOTHING in the "tvShows" media holder. 

    WTFIGO please? So frustrating to follow instructions, and get zilch for it - esp after it worked so intuitively initially.
