    My current setup is emby feeding roku and it has been working fine for several years. I have been waiting for jellyfin to mature (especially with roku) before giving it a try. I’ve installed jellyfin, but have shut it down until I can get everything set up right. I’m also planning to load kodi on a pi4 I just got gifted to me in a few weeks and hooking it up to one of my TVs.  I’m trying to get everything set up in a way that all these programs will play nice together.
    A few months back emby started scraping my media with huge errors. Some of the movies/tv series the scraper chose were way off.  So I started adding [tmdbid=123456] or [tvdbid=123456] to the  Movie/TV folder name and Movie name.
    Movies
    | - Movie-name (year) [tmdbid=123456]
    |    |- Movie-name (year) [tmdbid=123456].mkv

    emby docs state emby excepts [tmdbid=123456] or [tmdbid-123456]
    After hours of web searching I can’t find what JF excepts.  I’ve seen where [tmdbid-123456] is used in examples, but nothing stating what is excepted.
    It seems that kodi depends on the scraper you choose, so that opens a whole other can of worms.

    Also, I have some TV episodes named  Tv-series S01E01-E02
    Will the jellyfin scraper get these right?

    Just looking for advice on what others have found to work.

    In order to help with identifying a movie, Jellyfin can make use of media provider identifiers. This can be specified in your movie's file or folder name, for example:
    Film (2010) [imdbid-tt0106145].mp4 or Film (201Nerd-face [tmdbid-65567]

    Only use dashes, not equals.

    Yes, jellyfin excepts the Emby syntax for multi-episode files.
