    Hi everyone,
    I’m having trouble getting Jellyfin to recognize the TV show The Misfit of Demon King Academy (2020) correctly. I've added it to my library with what I believe is the proper folder and file structure, but Jellyfin still doesn't detect it as a series or fetch the correct metadata. Here's what my setup looks like:
    java
    KopierenBearbeiten
    D:\
    └── Serien\
        └── The Misfit of Demon King Academy (2020)\
            └── Season 01\
                ├── The Misfit of Demon King Academy - S01E01.mp4
                ├── The Misfit of Demon King Academy - S01E02.mp4
                ├── ...

    What I’ve tried so far:
    • Rescanned the library multiple times


    Jellyfin still doesn’t properly identify the series or episodes. Is there something wrong with my naming convention or folder structure? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!

    You're naming looks correct. Try clicking on the 3 vertical dots (bottom right corner) of the poster to bring up the submenu. Hit "identify" & enter the title & year of the show. This should then bring up options to change the metadata to what your after

    Setup your directories like this:

    D:\
    └── Serien\
        └── The Misfit of Demon King Academy (2020) [tvdbid-375927]\
            └── Season 01\
                ├── S01E01.mp4
                ├── S01E02.mp4
                ├── ...

    Just make sure you have the TheTVDB plugin installed and turned on in the Jellyfin Library "Serien" you created.
    You don't need the episode name in the video file name.
