    I have 2 movies in a series. They are named as, The BB (1980).mp4 and BB 2000 (199Nerd-face.mp4. They both show up as the first movie in the Jellyfin Roku app.  Is there a way to correct this? Thank you for any help you can give.

    Are those the actual names of the movie? And are each movie in their own folder?

    Does each movie have their own TMDB entry?

    Sorry for the delay. The actual names are The Blues Brothers (1980).mp4 and Blues Brothers 2000 (199Nerd-face.mp4.
    Folders are Movies, B. They are in the B folder (sub folder of Movies)
    As far as a TMDB entry, I don't know. Is there tutorial on how to add TMDB info?

    Go to https://www.themoviedb.org/ and find the ID of the movie (search). The ID is in the URL and is the numbers only. In Jellyfin, go to the movie in question (I would do Blues Brothers 2000) and click the kebab. Remove ALL of the existing information here and enter the TMDB ID in the appropriate field.

    It seems like you might run into issues if I'm understanding your setup correctly.

    Movies:
      A:
        A movie starting with A.mp4
      B:
        The Blues Brothers (1980).mp4
        Blues Brothers 2000 (1999).mp4


    Jellyfin works most effectively with a flat structure, where each movie has its own folder. Please refer to the guide for more details.

    Example of using the tmdbid:
    Blues Brothers 2000 (1999) [tmdbid-11568].mp4
