Coming from Plex, I gave Jellyfin a try, but returned back to Plex after several months. My biggest gripes were poor subtitle support and inability to differintiate TV shows from movies stored in the same folder. Does this version improve these issues?
- JoeBOFH 27d agoCan I ask why you have TV shows in the same folder? I have a /video folder and under that /tv /movies /kidsmovies /kidstv. Just kinda curious.
- NoGravitas 27d agoThey probably had it set up that way for Plex, and didn't read the documentation about how Jellyfin needs its libraries organized.
- OroPla 27d agoPlenty of shows continue in a movie, like Firefly (2002) -> Serenity (2005), so I can see why you'd want to mix.
- JoeBOFH 27d agoI get it’s a personal thing but yeah I’d still separate them. Tv != Movie.
- OroPla 27d agoI separate everything by decade > type > year (of start date). Don't even keep multiple seasons in the same folder if they are from different years. Still ends up mixing all types within a decade. But I prefer splitting things by decades as a first level. The distinction of cinema, direct-to-video, TV show, TV movie, web and others isn't really that important to me.
- Avamander 27d agoI would even recommend separating all and any anime + animated movies from the rest. Different metadata sources, easier to browse.
