A few questions

[sy278]

Hi all,

Fairly new to Jellyfin and I have a few questions I haven't been able to find answers to in the docs or this forum. If you ca help me out that would be appreciated!

1. How can i stop the system prefixing Age ratings with GB?
   
   
2. Is there a way to force the system to refresh all age ratings without updating anything else and not using NFO files?
   
   
3. Is there any way to set the profiles so that all clients use the same settings on sign-in rather than havign to manually set them on each and every client?
   
   

Thanks in advance.

GB?

I'm using ratings from the United States and they're not prefixed with anything (ex: pg-13).

Is there a way to force the system to refresh all age ratings without updating anything else and not using NFO files?

You can attempt to lock parts of the metadata you don't ever want changed for each show or movie, but I'm not sure if that will also lock ratings from being refreshed too. Otherwise, no there is not a way to do this.

Is there any way to set the profiles so that all clients use the same settings on sign-in rather than havign to manually set them on each and every client?

People attempted this in the past. It involves editing the files used for running Jellyfin and the web client. Don't know if anyone succeeded with this however.

There is no setting in Jellyfin that easily let's you do this.

Thanks for replying, yeah GB, I'm in UK so using UK ratings but it prefixes everything with "GB-" however these arent available in the system to pick so it stops the parental control for age restriction from working correctly.

I find it unbelievable that there is no master setting for profiles in the admin panel, this should be the default and then any localised changes made on the client. Very cumbersome methods used in this tool.

Reliance on external players is weird too. Some play some files some don't. Some can also play without the need to transcode whilst others need to transcode to play the same file.
