Delete Single Season of show

[designingbeing]

Jellyfin's delete menu item behaves differently on a season inside a show, depending on whether or not there are multiple seasons of the show in the media library.

• If there are multiple seasons of a show available in the library, there is an option to "Delete media" on individual seasons of the show     
  
• If there is only one season of a show available in the library, there is no option to delete it from the show view.     
  

I tried looking into it, I only got as far as finding that the CanDelete field of a season returns false to the UI when there is only one seasons of a show available.

The behaviour is not intuitive to me: based on the behaviour of single-season shows I thought there was no option to delete single seasons of shows at all.

Is this intended behaviour?

Is there something I could edit to enable deleting single seasons of a show from the show view if only one season is available?

This issue arises when you don't organize your files into folders and instead use a flat structure. Here's an example to illustrate:

Code:

Yellowstone (2018)
--S01E01.mkv
--S01E02.mkv

Vs

Code:

Yellowstone (2018)
--Season 01
-----S01E01.mkv
-----S01E02.mkv

You need to move your media into season folders for the delete option to be enabled.
