Multi part episdoes: Not dispalying correctly

[SubsBware]

I've been trying to figure out how to format this correctly so it shows up properly in Jellyfin, but i cant seem to find the right settings.

I have a show where the first episode is a 2 part-er. But it shows up wrong in Jellyfin, but in different ways, depending on how i name the files.

1. I name it 
<Show> - <S01E01> - <Episode name> - <Part 1>
<Show> - <S01E02> - <Episode name> - <Part 2>

This causes it to list both episodes, however it lists them as Episode 1 & Episode 2

2. Naming it..
<Show> - <S01E01> - <Episode name Part 1>
<Show> - <S01E02> - <Episode name Part 2>

..Results in showing only episode 1, skipping Ep2 entirely, and naming Ep 3, as Ep2.

Both episodes have the same name, but they are different episodes numerically.

How can i format this correctly for Jellyfin?

The "part" syntax needs to occur immediately after "S01E01". Our documentation also appears to indicate that there can't be anything after the "part" syntax.

What will work.

Code:

<Show> - <S01E01> <Part 1>
<Show> - <S01E01> <Part 2>

What might work

Code:

<Show> - <S01E01> <Part 1> - <Episode name>
<Show> - <S01E01> <Part 2> - <Episode name>

That didnt work.. but also a correction

It would be S01E01 and S01E02

Episode 1 is Part 1, and Episode 2 is Part 2.

So both Episodes are named the same, but episode listing both overall and in the season, are 1 & 2.

Ok. So you are not attempting to use the "parts" syntax. As in multiple files that are segments of the same episode?

If that is the case, you need to put Part 1 and Part 2 in parenthesis.

Code:

Show - S01E01 - (Episode name Part 1)
Show - S01E02 - (Episode name Part 2)

I think this is the best option since "part 1" is actually part of the episode name, I'm assuming.

Not technically.. as far as i can tell.

If it helps, its Ep 1 & 2 of Star Wars Rebels, named Spark of Rebellion. According to the SW wiki its a..

"forty-four minute long (one-hour with commercials), two-part animated television movie that serves as the series premiere"

But having it as part of the name is probably the most accurate format.
But, that doesn't seem to change anything in Jellyfin. It doesn't show the Ep2 at all and instead Ep3 remains listed as 'Episode 2'.

First, install the TheTVDB plugin and set it as the top priority in your library scrapers. Next, edit the series metadata and change the Display Order from "Aired" to "DVD", ensuring that the episode numbers align with the listing.
