A question about .nfo files naming

[KuanKan410]

When I am using jellyfin's plugins to get the metadata, I found the .nfo files are always named as 'movie.nfo'. Are there any settings to name nfo files like ' "movie_name.nfo" '?
I'm not native English speaker, so I use translator to communicate.

The file name that Jellyfin writes via NFO saver cannot be configured.

How does the limitation to only use movie.nfo work with the multiple versions movie folder structure shown in this link:

https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server...of-a-movie

Movies
├── Best_Movie_Ever (2019)
│  ├── Best_Movie_Ever (2019) - 1080P.mp4
│  ├── Best_Movie_Ever (2019) - 720P.mp4
│  └── Best_Movie_Ever (2019) - Directors Cut.mp4
└── Movie (2021) [imdbid-tt12801262]
    ├── Movie (2021) [imdbid-tt12801262] - 2160p.mp4
    ├── Movie (2021) [imdbid-tt12801262] - 1080p.mp4
    └── Movie (2021) [imdbid-tt12801262] - Directors Cut.mp4

The .nfo file includes information about the video, audio, subtitle(s), and embedded images of the movie, such as:

  <fileinfo>
    <streamdetails>
      <video>
        <codec>h264</codec>
        <micodec>h264</micodec>
        <bitrate>5552534</bitrate>
        <width>1920</width>
        <height>1080</height>
        <aspect>16:9</aspect>
        <aspectratio>16:9</aspectratio>
        <framerate>23.976025</framerate>
        <scantype>progressive</scantype>
        <default>True</default>
        <forced>False</forced>
        <duration>87</duration>
        <durationinseconds>5246</durationinseconds>
      </video>
      <audio>
        <codec>ac3</codec>
        <micodec>ac3</micodec>
        <bitrate>384000</bitrate>
        <language>eng</language>
        <scantype>progressive</scantype>
        <channels>6</channels>
        <samplingrate>48000</samplingrate>
        <default>True</default>
        <forced>False</forced>
      </audio>
      <subtitle>
      </subtitle>
      <embeddedimage> 
      </embeddedimage>    
    </streamdetails>
  </fileinfo>

So by having only a single .nfo file in a folder with multiple versions of the same movie, the correct information for at least one movie (and maybe more) will not be included in metadata for the movie (which is stored in the .nfo file).

The information, such as movie description, title, rating, tags, etc., will apply to all versions from the NFO file. However, details like subtitles, audio tracks, and duration are sourced from ffprobe, not the NFO file, and may differ between versions.

Thank you for the clarification.
