I have a series in jellyfin. The first seasons are dubbed german, the later seasons are only in the original dub. Is it possible to force two separate entries for this season (e.g. “Example Series (German)” - containing Seasons 1-3 and “Example Series (English)” containing Seasons 4-6)? Problem is, that not all users that have access to this library are fluent in English and I want to avoid that they think this series is available in full only to switch the language halfway through…

Or is there another way to do/indicate something like this?

I know I could just tell them, but will they remember that in a few months?

    I have my non english language content seperated in a different library. This allows you to set the language of the meta data to German so you get German episode titles and descriptions. Downside is that the two versions won’t be showing up in the same list (at least not on the web. Some clients might combine libraries)

      D’uh, sometimes you just don’t see the obvious solution. Thanks, I think that’s the easiest solution for this problem!

      Theres an option to automatically merge libraries into tv and move lists. I think that it is only a user setting though.
