    Hey guys,

    I have a question regarding the structure of my Japanese/Anime music folder. The structure is like this:

    Music
        Anime Name 1
             Release/Album 1
                   Files (Songs, Covers,...)
             Release/Album 2
                   Files (Songs, Covers,...)
        Anime Name 2
             Release/Album 1
                   Files (Songs, Covers,...)
             Release/Album 2
                   Files (Songs, Covers,...)

    My problem is that the Anime folders get treated like Artists, I suppose? What can I do to stop Jellyfin from treating the second tier of folders like Artists?
    I don´t want to change to the recommended structure. I like this structure and it would be so much work to reorganize everything again.

    Please help me Weary-face

    If you are hellbent on this structure you will have to manually edit each entry. How Jellyfin displays and organized your library is heavily dependent on how the various metadata databases organize shows and music.

    What do you mean by " manually edit each entry" ? I have no problem to go into each folder and edit the nfo file. Just need to know what I have to do Ok-hand

    If this does not work and I have to use the expected structure(Musik-->Artist--->Album), where do I put Compilation Albums? Those don´t belong to one Artist, so where do I put them?
