    Misc files from MakeMKV are being recognized as their own movies

    The extra files from MakeMKV are all being recognized as their own movie

    Is there a way to make it so only the folder is recognized as a movie instead of the subcontents. For example I have Amazing Spiderman 2. Within the folder I have 

    Amazing Spiderman 2
    - Amazing Spider-man 2_t00.mkv
    - Amazing Spider-man 2_t01.mkv
    - ....

    I would rather the folder be recognized as the movie instead of the individual files

    Is the movie split?
    - Amazing Spider-man 2_t00.mkv is Part1?
    - Amazing Spider-man 2_t01.mkv is Part2?

    Or are those like special features?

    Then create an Extras folder and put them in there or append a suffix to the end. https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server...as-folders

    Amazing Spiderman 2\
    - Main movie file.mkv
    ----extras\
    ----Amazing Spider-man 2_t00.mkv
    ----Amazing Spider-man 2_t01.mkv
    ----....

    Or with the suffix:
    Amazing Spider-man 2_t00-behindthescenes.mkv
    Amazing Spider-man 2_t00-deletedscene.mkv

    Is there no way to just have it ignore the files and just focus on the folders? I have this file structure for over 100 movies
