    Hello.
    When I download my shows I often find versions with multiple seasons, say season 1 to season 20, and then download the newer seasons separately, but I have noticed Jellyfin isnt so happy with that formatting.
    A structure could look like this:

    Show (xxxx)
    - Season 01 to Season 20
    -- Season 01
    --- s01e01
    -- Season 02
    --- s02e01
    ...

    - Season 21
    -- s21e01
    ...

    Still Jellyfin will usually thor everything from Season 01 to Season 20 into a Season 1, and just not find the right metadata for the seasons.
    **Mod edit: TMI**, so I can only really rename them, and not move files around.

    I wanted to ask if anyone had any solution to this, or a different way of doing it
    /Thanks

    TLDR, you're SOL. The only thing I can think of is to use symlinks or something with the proper folder structure, but that is a lot of manual work.
