I installed Jellyfin yesterday and am having an almost identical issue. Jellyfin is installed on a PC running Debian 12 while the media files are on a Synology NAS. The media files are accessed from the Linux box via NFS shares.
When I view my "Movies" library in Jellyfin, only one movie shows. I can't figure out why it picks this one movie as it is not at the "top" alphabetically or in any other way. However, as mentioned above, I can click any letter on the right edge of the screen and will be given one (and only one) movie starting with that letter. Again, the one selected is not alphabetically the first for that letter, but it is not random - the same movie appears everytime i choose that letter.
I can also search and find any movie - though again, as mentioned above, only one version shows. Whatever I choose will play just fine, so Jellyfin is accessing the files without any issue. However, to eliminate any permission issues, all directories and files have "777" permissions both on the NAS and on Linux via the share folder. The ownership and group of all directories and files are the same, so I can't see any permissions reason for only one specific file displaying.
My install was via the "Debuntu Automatic Repository", following the steps in the documentation and seeing no errors.
Like a previous poster, I am currently using Plex but wanted to check out Jellyfin, having heard many good comments about it. Someone must have experienced this and found a solution! Thanks.
