  • Jellyfin

    The Free Software Media System

  • If it was easy, it would've been done. There's multiple scanners, lots of parsing rules, metadata lookups, database calls, etc etc etc. Plus this mountain of regex used to identify items: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/blob/master/Emby.Naming/Common/NamingOptions.cs. How do you programatically determine if something is a movie or a tv show? What if it's a show that only has 1 episode so far? What if the movie has multiple versions? What about extras? How about when users inevitably ignore the naming rules or name things in ambiguous ways? Mixed content is awful. Genuinely awful. It's a nightmare to get right, and it goes wrong in 100 different ways. It's even worse in the anime world where logical numbering and season definitions often go right out the window, making the parsing of files even harder.
