Hey everyone, I am currently trying to fully understand the syntax I am being recommended to use for Shows to help out Jellyfin in finding the titles
https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/media/shows
Shows
├── Series Name A (2010)
│ ├── Season 00
│ │ ├── Some Special.mkv
│ │ ├── Series Name A S00E01.mkv
│ │ └── Series Name A S00E02.mkv
│ ├── Season 01
│ │ ├── Series Name A S01E01-E02.mkv
│ │ ├── Series Name A S01E03.mkv
│ │ └── Series Name A S01E04.mkv
│ └── Season 02
│ ├── Series Name A S02E01.mkv
│ ├── Series Name A S02E02.mkv
│ ├── Series Name A S02E03 Part 1.mkv
│ └── Series Name A S02E03 Part 2.mkv
└── Series Name B (2018)
├── Season 01
| ├── Series Name B S01E01.mkv
| └── Series Name B S01E02.mkv
└── Season 02
├── Series Name B S02E01-E02.mkv
└── Series Name B S02E03.mkv
There is one scenario I could not quite grasp/understand.
Let's say for example a Show/"Series name" releases its first season in 2015, then other subsequent seasons come out in later years.
Is it sufficient to keep the main directory (housing all seasons) named as "Series Name A (2015)" and then just add the seasons that come out simply as Season 01, Season 02, etc... regardless of what years those other seasons came out?
So in short the name of the show and the year of its first season release is enough?
Thank you!
