but to be clear, these specials are listed as special content in a Show entry on TVDB?
NOT as their own separate entry entirely?
After you check your ordering, S00E03, etc.
Check your display order? See if it matches?
Double check which DB metadata is pulling from? (TVDB vs TMDB)
For display order, I think ive had an issue with Kitchen Nightmares,
and it was pulling TMDB instead of TVDB,(despite that I had [TVDBID-XXXXX] appended)
but that is a different topic.
I had everything named acording to https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/media/shows/. The ordering was correct as per TVDB and the scanner set to get info from TVDB
I made sure over weeks to check and double triple check how the shows were named, ordered, folder structure. Nothing worked
I went back to plex and renamed everything the way their naming works also with the Plex TV Series agent, you can optionally include the TMDB or TVDB show ID in the folder name to improve matching it must be inside curly braces: ShowName (2020) {tvdb-123456} or ShowName (2020) {tmdb-123456} where 123456 is the show ID. I got my friends to buy a plex pass and now with all the shows renamed the plex way and jellyfin removed from all our devices we can all watch together without weeks of headaches and frustration just to do simple things. I like the idea of jellyfin. Not how it works though. Everything is over complicated and tedious. Nothing but headaches from start to end. So my fix is to use emby or plex. As they actually work.
