I rebuild my Linux server about once a year. Trying out new distros and uncluttering all the changes I've made that year. I usually just format the drive and reinstall everything from scratch. But the number one annoyance of doing that is that I have to go through my entire media library and redo all the metadata changes that I've made. I'm absolutely fastideous about everything being labeled and sorted correctly. But, with a whole system scan, Jellyfin gets a lot wrong on the automatic metadata scans. Is there a way to back-up this data, so I can just re-import it into Jellyfin after a system wipe? I have over 3100 films and 500 TV shows to calalogue, and it takes an entire day of manual fixes to get it back to where it was.
I exclusively use Linux as my server OS, so that's all I need answers for.
