So integrate it in Jellyfin.
I don’t want five additional pieces of software to fix Jellyfin’s shortcomings, I want it to work.
Mind you, there are still edge cases in Plex, and the renaming dance can still be annoying, but still, it’s one thing to have classic Doctor Who DVDs be an alien artifact no software can process and another to have to install additional software to masticate things for Jellyfin on a task that is fundamental to the thing it’s supposed to be doing.
Also, I don’t want my stuff to be curated and renamed. My library is fine as it is. Part of the annoyance is for software to insist on moving crap around. I know what I have, where I have it and it’s all rationally named. It’s on the software to parse it.
To be clear, I think you’re being friendly and useful, it’s just that I’m frustrated by the pattenrs of users and additional software creating this cluster of self-connected software spaghetti to address UX faults that are fundamental but OSS devs like to ignore indefinitely.
