You can use something like Radarr to put your movie collection into sane and consistent filenames and directory structures that apps like Jellyfin can parse well and store metadata in without issues.
You can do the same thing with Sonarr for shows, and pretty much any ID3 tag editor with batch renaming for music.
Both apps seem to have better identification and normalization features than Jellyfin does.
- graftak 4y agoIf you go this route you should set it up for sonarr media directories to include the initial release year. This helps identify series with the same or similar names, like The Office, or House of Cards.
- pwinnski 4y agoI happen to believe that my current movie and tv collection already use sane and consistent filenames. Certainly they're sane enough for Plex (and most are set by the Scene). If you're suggesting a directory per movie, we disagree on what is sane.
