Whilst you can override it manually, I heartily recommend modifying the folder/file names so that autodetection works correctly.
Otherwise you'll end up just manually fixing it again next time there's a significant library change.
What do you mean by this? Would you mean, for example, restructuring the folders so that the path changes?
Exactly.
Like you have to move things, or change your mounts, or a major change in Jellyfin necessitates rebuilding the library from scratch.
This works fine by the way, the watch status is stored in a database seperate from the media.
This is the best fix, the second would be to find the IMDB id and place it in it on the GUI, then pull the metadata automatically and to make sure it's not reverted lock it.
On that note, is there a way to find the media for which I used the identify function? And cancel to return it to its default state ?
Not that I'm aware of.
The information would certainly be in the database, but I don't know how to access it.
