So I’ve been using Plex for a while now because jellyfins Xbox app sucks. I love Jellyfin and the one thing I’m missing from Plex is the collections. I tried to get collections where they will automatically group related movies together but it appears I have to manually tag each movie? Could anyone give me some clarity on this please
Why not Emby? Jellyfish was forked from Emby but I’ve never had issues with Emby when I did with Plex. Emby has even impressed me enough that they actually got a lifetime subscription out of me
Apparently code is really outdated or something with Emby?
Time to self host Plex meta manager PMM
On it! Thank you!
Yeah I gave up on handling collections manually, wayyyyy too much work.

go this rout, and don’t look back
Excellent thank you for the easy straight to the point answer. I did look at this but closed it out because I thought there much have been an out of the box implementation but there’s not so I’ll look back at it for sure! Thank you
Take a look at this:

Also make sure “automatic collection size” inside your library settings is set to a number of your preference. I believe it is disabled by default. Mine is set at 2.
And then you can also hide elements within a collection on your library so it looks cleaner.
