    I have three different media libraries: Shows, Films, and Anime. The issue I'm having is that within my anime library I also have films. When Jellyfin scans for metadata it recognizes the films but places arbitrary season numbers and folders within them. For example, with Ghost in the Shell the server will recognize the iMDB tag but won't update images and the film is listed as being part of "season 19."

    With that, is there any way to switch individual media files type within a library (i.e. show to film)?

    Short answer: No. Mixed libraries are not well supported to begin with and are strongly discouraged. Movies should be in a movies library and shows in a shows library.

    I, and it seems a lot of other people here, keep our Anime separate from our western shows. So our setups looks something like this in terms of libraries.

    Movies (non-Anime movies)
    Anime Movies
    TV shows (non-Anime shows)
    Anime
    Jellyfin 10.10.7 (Docker)
    Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS w/HWE
    Intel i3 12100
    Intel Arc A380
    OS drive - SK Hynix P41 1TB
    Storage
        4x WD Red Pro 6TB CMR in RAIDZ1

    Thanks for the quick response! That's an easy enough fix at least.
