    I've tried renaming my folders and files at nauseam but I cannot figure out how to get Jellyfin to group together my Seasons. My show:

    Code:
    └── Peep Show
        ├── Season 01
        │  ├── Peep Show S01E01.mp4
        │  ├── Peep Show S01E02.mp4
        │  ├── Peep Show S01E03.mp4
        │  ├── Peep Show S01E04.mp4
        │  ├── Peep Show S01E05.mp4
        │  └── Peep Show S01E06.mp4
        └── Season 02
            ├── Peep Show S02E01.mp4
            ├── Peep Show S02E02.mp4
            ├── Peep Show S02E03.mp4
            ├── Peep Show S02E04.mp4
            ├── Peep Show S02E05.mp4
            └── Peep Show S02E06.mp4

    How Jellyfin categorises it:

           

    Obviously it can understand that the shows are the same and it can find the seasons within them... I just don't understand why it's listing them as two different shows?

    What am I doing wrong? I've read the documentation (https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/media/shows/).

    Sorry didn’t get a notification of your reply.

    It’s a show library, specifically for English shows.

    Can you move the Peep Show folder out of your library, rescan to remove it, then move the folder back into your library and rescan to add it back.

    So this didn’t fix it but it helped me figure out what I was doing wrong.

    Up until now I was adding folders to my libraries individually. So each time I added something new I’d add that folder to the library I wanted it to appear in.

    I think that was the root of the problem. I’ve divided my shows into category folders and then added those to each of my libraries and it fixed the issue.

    Thank you!
