    Hi, I've a film collection that is organized as a master directory with inside many movies saved as "year - movie name.mkv". How could I import it directly on my Jellyfin library? Since it has been downloaded from torrent I wouldn't change its structure, since I'd like to keep it in seeding.

    I've tried to import the directory itself but, I guess due to the structure or the files' name, its content hasn't been recognized.

    Thanks!

    If this is Linux you could create empty folders that are properly named and then use symlinks. But that is a lot of manual work.

    Otherwise you are out of luck.
