UPDATE: After some great suggestions here, I got everything working. Was a Linux permissions issue mostly, but also some files were not named properly. Everything is working as I'd expect, all be it, a bit slower than PLEX used to, but I'm fine with that.

I have a Library called Star Trek Movies, in this library is my collection of 1080P 10-bit MKV files of said collection, correctly named, and did work perfectly fine in PLEX. However, only one file will be pulled into the library and it won't ID that file properly. Does anyone have any suggestions of what could be the issue? I'm having the same issue with other folders of movies as well. Haven't tried to add any TV Shows as of yet though.

Edit: I do get this error a lot in the log, but I can't seam to figure out what it means.

Jellyfin expects movies to be in sub-folders with their movie titles for the best experience. You can have a Star Trek library, but each movie inside of there needs to be in its own folder. For example M:\Star Trek\Star Trek II - Wrath of Kahn\Star Trek II - Wrath of Kahn.mkv

This has always worked the best for me.
