    Hello!

    I'm using Jellyfin as a library for all my movies.

    I have movies as "real" MP4-Files and Discs (Blurays). 
    For the Discs I use "Dummy-Files" in the libraries - these are empty 0-kB files with the title of the movie as filename.

    The Informations of the movies I'm scraping with tinyMediaManager into NFO-Files (named as the movies).
    So every movie (MP4 or Disc) has it's NFO-File.

    Jellyfin looks for all NFO-Files and builds its libraries. That's working fine: Every movie is in Jellyfin.


    Now here's my problem:
    Only MP4-Movies show a Runtime (Length of the movie).
    The Dummy-Files don't use the <runtime> of the NFO-Files.

    How can I see the Runtime of the Disc-Movies in Jellyfin, too?
    Does anyone know?

    (I even tried to write the <runtime> into the Jellyfin library.db by a script written by ChatGPT. But nothing works.
    While there is no MP4-File, I don't get a Runtime in Jellyfin - it seems...)

    Thank you so much!
    //Robert
