    So I have a drive with movies and TV and adult content

    movies and adult content work fine.

    As soon as I go to load TV I can only see 5 or 6 things...

    I can view everything in folder view.

    But cannot get folder view to work off my phone...

    what to try next?

    Can you provide an example of how you have your media folders and filenames set up? As well as how you're linking them to Jellyfin?

    Also, confirm which library type the shows are in. A shows library? Or did you use a mixed content library?

    Wasted so much time.
    Can't find many negative reviews of jellyfin this in it self is a huge red flag.

    I ended up installing kodi to my media box
    Added NFS shares it can see everything.

    I don't have OCD or time to rename 40ish GB of shows and movies
    I don't even want scraping

    Find folder play media

    Good luck in the future
    Maybe if someone could make a plugin that just works no scraping see media in folders it plays on X Y Z devices

    Use the music videos library if you don't want metadata. It is a glorified folder view.

    Also, there are apps for mass renaming and organizing media.
