File naming for multi-part movies

[not_a_burner0456025]

I have been trying to set up my movie backups on Jellyfin, but I have been having a few problems with the lord of the rings. I have multiple versions of the movies in 4k, the theatrical cut and the special extended editions, but I am having trouble getting them to show up properly. The extended editions are split across two discs, so I tried using the file naming structure from the shows section of the docs, although I am not sure if I have it structured correctly, it doesn't provide an example like the docs do in other areas. When I pull up any of the movies through jellyfin I do get a version dropdown, but it only allows me to select the theatrical cut or part 1 of the extended edition. The parts are not being merged, for the fellowship of the ring the theatrical cut is 2:58 and the extended edition part 1 is 1:45, but the full extended edition should have a runtime of 3:20.

My directory structure is:
\Movies
     \The Lord of the Rings- The Fellowship of the Ring
          The Lord of the Rings- The Fellowship of the Ring.mkv
          The Lord of the Rings- The Fellowship of the Ring - Extended Edition part-1.mkv
          The Lord of the Rings- The Fellowship of the Ring - Extended Edition part-2.mkv

I realize this is a fairly niche case, but the lord of the rings are a very popular series, does anyone know how to name these so that they show up correctly in Jellyfin?

AFAIK, you cannot use both versions and parts. IMO, the better option is to merge the extended edition into one file (this is what I did). Merging does not involve any encoding, btw. So it should happen as quickly as your disk can read and write and keep the original quality.

MKVToolnix is the go-to tool if you aren't comfortable with the command line.

Thank you, I ended up finding that solution elsewhere. It is taking a while to merge because the files are quite large, but it appears that solution will work. It would be convenient if versions and parts worked but it isn't a huge problem.
