Automatic Metadata Cleanup

[jelly]

Hello. I have the following situation.

I get content for Jellyfin [edited]. When I'm done with some piece of content I delete [not through Jellyfin (edited)]. The problem is that the corresponding metadata downloaded through Jellyfin its still there. Until now, I've been deleting these manually but I wonder if it is possible to delete that metadata automatically using Jellyfin.

Pretty sure the issue here is that the external tool is providing metadata and Jellyfin is searching for its own, so adds additional metadata to the folder. You can likely configure your external tool to serve metadata in a Jellyfin-friendly format and configure Jellyfin to not search for/add metadata. This is how I have things set up and it works flawlessly aside from a few items that are difficult to identify through the standard DBs.

Hello. Thank you for responding.

I will try this soon, thank you.

But wouldn't it be possible to do this directly in Jellyfin? I mean, the content metadata obtained directly through Jellyfin is bound to content itself through filename so that if I have metadata files without a corresponding .mkv, .mp3 or similar file/s, then it is safe to assume that those are orphaned metadata, right?

There is a builtin way in which this kind of logic could be performed to delete orphaned metadata? Maybe with an extension?
