    EDIT: I’m an idiot, sorry. I can’t delete the post?
    I hadn’t added the other hard drive with the additional series to the /Series library. So it was my fault.


    Hello,
    I’ve spent several months building a TV series collection with over 40 shows and have never had any issues until now.
    My folder structure is like this:
    Series/2.Broke.Girls/S01
    .
    When I tried to add 2 Broke Girls, Jellyfin didn’t detect it — it just didn’t appear.
    Then I tried adding the folder manually under Library → Series → Edit Library → + Add folders, and that actually worked! Suddenly the show appeared.
    All my other shows are also under the
    Series
    directory, and Jellyfin always found them automatically before.
    However, I noticed that in “Recently Added Series,” 2 Broke Girls showed up four times. At first, I thought that was because it has four seasons, but it actually has six — and all six are now correctly detected. All four entries point to the same show, though.
    That wouldn’t be a big deal, but now, when I add new shows like
    The.Umbrella.Academy/S01
    or several others, they’re no longer detected.
    When I do a manual “Scan for new and changed files” in the Series library (like I always used to), nothing happens, and Jellyfin doesn’t find them.
    If I try to add The Umbrella Academy as a separate folder (like I did with 2 Broke Girls), it also doesn’t get detected.
    I knew that Jellyfin 10.11.0 was coming soon, so I installed the update today and also cleared Jellyfin’s cache afterwards.
    The update went perfectly, everything else works fine — but the series detection problem still remains.
    Jellyfin is running natively on a Debian server, and there are no other issues with either series or movies (movies are detected and categorized correctly in the movie library).
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks!

    Edit: Now I’ve done “Scan all libraries,” and it found The Umbrella Academy — but again, it shows up 4 times under “Recently Added.” However, I’ve added several other series that it still doesn’t detect. Do I really have to add every single show as a separate folder now? That would make things very confusing and take away the “automatic” part of it. Also, having the same series appear four times is quite annoying in the long run.
