As pointed out by @[email protected] here comment, and @iturnedintoanewt here, one can manually identify a show by clicking on the 3 vertical dots in the corner of a movie or show when hovering over it, and click "identify" (you must be logged in as an admin account). One then simply fills out the fields, as desired, to find the correct media.

Original Post

I have a few shows that Jellyfin isn't able to fetch the proper metadata for; they just display blank in the listings with only the original filename. Is it possible for me to select that show, and manually override Jellyfin to identify it as a specific show without renaming the actual file?

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.
