Delete Branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Originally created by @bnichs5 on GitHub (Jan 26, 2019).
I have 2 different files of the same movie in the same folder named after that movie. Instead of Jellyfin stacking the the versions it shows me the two different thumbnails for the movie when browsing my collection. Can anyone either attempt to fix this or tell me what i am doing wrong?
Thanks
@anthonylavado commented on GitHub (Jan 26, 2019):
@bnichs5 There’s a very specific format to follow for the files to match up.
Can you tell us what the folder name is like, and what the file names are like?
You can change the name if you want to.
Example:
@bnichs5 commented on GitHub (Jan 26, 2019):
exactly like that
My Movie (2005)
-My Movie-v2.mkv
@JustAMan commented on GitHub (Jan 26, 2019):
Can you try adding spaces around
-? It's really picky about that it seems.@cvium commented on GitHub (Jan 26, 2019):
Different versions like different resolutions etc.? Or is it more like Extended, Director's cut?
Either way, I don't get why it's picky.
@bnichs5 commented on GitHub (Jan 26, 2019):
Same movie. Same resolution.just a different bitrate.

It looks like this.

There are 3 1080p files and 2 720p files. but they wont stack.
All of them are in a folder called A Private War (2018)
@JustAMan commented on GitHub (Jan 26, 2019):
Can you post exact file names?
@anthonylavado commented on GitHub (Jan 27, 2019):
Just for reference, this is the Emby guide: https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Wiki/wiki/Movie-naming#multi-version-movies
As @JustAMan said, it really cares about the spacing if you’re using dashes.

@anthonylavado commented on GitHub (Jan 27, 2019):
@bnichs5 thank you for the details!
So the issue is that the movies are not named exactly as the folder.
Instead of:
A.Private.War.2018.1080p.BluRay.H264.AAC-RARBG.mp4It should be:
A Private War (2018) - 1080P BluRay H264 AAC.mp4And so on. As long as all files begin with (note the spaces):
A Private War (2018) -Then they will stack. The text after the dash can be whatever you want. It is the after dash text that will show up as the option list when you’re looking at the movie in Jellyfin.
Edit:
Another valid title would be:
A Private War (2018) - 1080p.BluRay.H264.AAC-RARBG.mp4if you wanted to keep it that way. It last the way that the name starts that matters.

It worked, however the image for the movie is not coming up anymore. All the other movie information comes up, just not the image.
@AnonymousWebHacker commented on GitHub (Sep 4, 2023):
I have the same error .
I have the same folder name and the videos, separated by their resolution, however jellyfin recognizes it as 2 different movies
@cvium commented on GitHub (Sep 4, 2023):
But the filenames are not the same? One is 2022 and the other 2023
@AnonymousWebHacker commented on GitHub (Sep 11, 2023):
hahhahahah tanks :)
I swear I made several attempts, and I never realized that it was one 22 and another 23.
