Description of the bug

After upgrading to 10.11.0, unsupported subfolders are no longer ignored by default.
Their contents are scanned and added as entries in the library.

Adding a .ignore file inside the subfolders "fixed" the issue (their contents are no longer shown in library).
(In this context, adding it inside CDs and SPs restored the behaviour in 10.10.7)

The library type is Movies (https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/media/movies)

Below is an example of an affected entry.

10.11 will now properly detect movies in subfolders: #9221. This is the intended behavior.
