Please describe your bug

Multipart episodes (Series Name S01E01E02 - Show Name.mkv) are counted as one episode in the episode counter on each respective series and season icons, throwing off the episode count by one for each multipart episode.

I just noticed this while adding a new series I ripped from DVD to my server because I thought I was missing episodes.

10.8.0

Same issue here, Filenames are appropriate (S07E04-E05), The files do not have episode or title meta data, and the scraper recognizes it as episodes 4-5 but the count is off and starting with that episode, the names are all off by 1 episode.

This is unlikely to be implemented. Jellyfin feature requests should be posted here: https://features.jellyfin.org
