Anthology

How to structure folder for Anthology, (similar to collection of web shorts)?

I have a Movies Library, and I am trying to setup an Anthology(web short collection) in the library.
If I setup the files as separate versions of "the movie" it works OK, but I don't like it.
Each short has its own separate name/actor. I don't want to classify it as a TV show.
I don't like it as versions, but versions work.
Setting it up as CD1, CD2, CD3, etc. works, but i don't like that either.
I've tried using folders such as "scenes" & "shorts",
but Jellyfin wont recognize those without a "movie" in the root directory.

Any suggestions for this niche issue?

Have you tried creating a Collection?

As I understand Collections,
Collections appear alongside all my other Libraries?
ex. Movies, Shows, Music, HALLOWEEN, CHRISTMAS, etc.
I only have one anthology.
My goal is to keep Anthology to appear in the movies library.
(I would also like to avoid, stitching all the shorts together,
and re-uploading as a single video file.)

AFAIK, what you are describing does not currently exist in Jellyfin. Yes, Collections would appear on the home screen alongside other libraries, but I think that is the closest you are going to get to what you want.

I haven't done it, but there is a setting in Libraries->Display:

Group movies into collections
Movies in a collection will be displayed as one grouped item when displaying movie lists.
