    Isnt that down to naming? Because they allow versions (at least for movies).
    Is this a case of sonarr and sonarr 4K?

      I don’t use any *arrs since a long time (rip rarbg), so I don’t know. And I don’t remember anything I put on my drives, Plex just recognizes everything on the first try, 99.99% of the time and detects duplicates. Jellyfin does not (the duplicates part).

          I guess Jellyfin just is inferior to Plex in this regard, then. It’s my problem, that Plex solves. 🙃👍

              Take? What take? Plex handles it automatically, Jellyfin does not. That’s not an opinion of mine, it’s an objective fact. No take. I’ll stick to Plex because of this until I’m forced not to.

                No.
                You are not sorting and naming your media properly. So it’s a problem you are causing.
                This is like complaining that your music isnt tagged correctly because you just dump 300 untagged MP3s into a folder and ask picard to just pick whatever.

                Easy solution:
                Install the *arr program (or a suitable substitute program) and name your media correctly.
                Then jellyfin will pick it up.
                Same for versions.

                  By the way, the issue is not that the media is not tagged correctly. Jellyfin detects the media just fine, and identifies it correctly as the correct movie and TV show and whatnot. That isn’t the issue. The issue is only that of duplicate detection. So if Jellyfin can detect the shows and movies correctly, it should be a simple problem to solve that it just looks up those IDs in the database of content, and merges them.

                  The big problem is UI, and implementing a nice solution for that. Plex has done that part, but Jellyfin has not, without a plugin. That’s it, really.
