[Resolved]Jellyfin won't fetch the good metadata (startrek.website)

So I recently-ish upload ST: Deep Space 9 into my Jellyfin (kind of love falling asleep watching it) and some episodes are doubled.

For example in season 4 Jellyfin fetched the metadata for the episode 9 (our men Bashir) and put it on the episode 9 and 10. Now after 10 the episodes are sync on the one before them. It slightly annoying.

I checked the naming convention for the file, seems in order. Tried to refresh the metadata, to no avail. Reboot the server, didn’t work. Only permit Jellyfin to fetch metadata from IMDB, nope

I’m at lost, any idea ?

Edit : what worked was putting [imdbid-ttXXXXX] in the problematic files name and refreshing all the metadata for the folder, in my case all the series

I use Sonarr.

Even if you rip your media, it's just really good at organizing your media files when you "import" them, plus it can fetch the metadata itself and put it into NFO files, which Jellyfin can both read from and write to, if you enable it. This allows for faster library scans and effectively eliminates the issue of mis-identified episodes/shows.
