How to make Jellyfin and tinyMediaManager work together?

[thestorebrandslimshady]

• Jellyfin version: 1.2.5
  
• Jellyfin app version: 10.10.7
  
• tinyMediaManager version: 1.2.4
  
• tinyMediaManager app version: 5.1.7
  

Jellyfin has been giving me some trouble with TV show metadata: I identify an individual episode using its IMDB ID, but it doesn't update the episode's description, thumbnail, etc.  To fix this, I've tried setting up a tinyMediaManager image and allowing it access to the Jellyfin library.  My goal is to manually edit metadata in TMM and have those changes reflected in Jellyfin, but it doesn't work.

From what I can tell, it's because TMM generates nfo files with the naming scheme movie.nfo, while Jellyfin uses its own naming scheme based on the media file's name .  Changing the nfo settings from Kodi to Jellyfin in TMM's settings didn't do anything, so (assuming this is the best way to do what I want) I want to make Jellyfin use the movie.nfo files.

I'm also having trouble figuring out exactly how to manually edit nfo files from TMM, but that's a separate issue.

Jellyfin supports both movie.nfo and filename.nfo as naming conventions for movie NFO files. After editing an NFO file, you must refresh the metadata using the "Replace all metadata" option for Jellyfin to detect the changes. This behavior is set to change in the upcoming 10.11.0 release.
