Basically, the issue is I have several series with specials, featurettes, or other (No credit Intros and Endings mostly).
I know there's the '.ignore' file that will prevent them from being scanned into the library, but I kinda WANT them to be scanned in and my experience with it is hit or miss anyway. Sometimes Jellyfin will ignore like it's supposed to and sometimes Jellyfin just does what it wants and ignores the '.ignore' file.
The problem is that once Jellyfin plays the last episode in the last season, it'll continue down the list and start playing stuff in the other or special folders. This gets kind of annoying when the other folder happens to contain 6 or 7 versions of the same ending with different visuals, or after watching the latest episode of a show that's currently airing and Jellyfin deciding to play the specials again every time.
Is there a way to stop Jellyfin from automatically playing the contents of "other" folders? Unless manually selected of course. A kind of "Stop here" or "Do not play" setting?
Note: The Specials thing is probably my fault since I find it annoying that specials appear at the beginning of various pages due to them being technically "Season 0," so I usually use the sort order fields to have it appear at the end.
