Example
Let's assume that you have the show "Cow and Chicken" in your library and this are the IDs of the metadata providers:
Problem
The problem here is, that the episodes don't match between IMDB, TMDB, and TvDB. The best match would be to just use the metadata from TvDB, but it seems that Jellyfin always chooses the episode list and metadata (e.g. descriptions) from IMDB.
Any idea how this can be fixed?

Ok, it seems that it was my fault. I had to enable the "tvdb" provider in the library entry for the shows and move it up.
