I want to add Pokemon Journeys to my jellyfin server, but jellyfin fucks up everything because it thinks it the regular Pokémon show from 1997 and imports metadata for that.

How can I fix this so it shows up correctly in jellyfin?

    The usual fix from the Jellyfin docs would be to check you file naming conventions, and add the TVDB or TMDB show ID to the folder so that it scrapes it correctly, or use the Identify option like @Rudee mentioned to select a better match from the UI after import.

    Both TVDB and TMDB consider Pokémon Journeys to be Season 23 of the original Pokémon show, the OMDB seems to list it as a standalone show though, so you could import and match it against that metadata.

    When you've clicked on the show and its showing you all the seasons/episodes you have, click on the settings (three dots) and select "Identify"

    It'll bring up a menu where you can input the name of the show, or its iMDb code, or a few other identifiers and it'll show the matches it can find. From there you can select the correct show and it'll populate the metadata accordingly

      I've done this multiple times already, it still does not populate with correct metadata. I can identify it as the correct show, but when JF rescans my library, it messes the identification up again.
