I’ve been running Jellyfin stable on Linux for a while now. I’m up to 10.10.7 and I’ve noticed a problem I cannot fix: my Collections are now empty. They used to be fully populated, would self-update whenever I added a new movie that belongs to a Collection, and all my movies are still here and work fine, but when I went into Collections, every single Collection had no items in it. I tried refreshing various libraries (That one, Movies, etc), and even removed and re-created my Collections library, but nothing has worked. Worse, now my Collections has no Collections in it. Movies are still fine though.
I’ve scoured the web, using various search terms (And wading through AI crap), but nothing has worked. I have very few plugins enabled, and none related to Collections. My movies are fine, but Collections refuses to repopulate.
Has anyone else run into a problem like this? If so, were you able to get it resolved?
New Jellyfin user here. It seems to me that the base Collections functionality is pretty trash. I then tried the TMDb Box Sets plugin, and it makes the Collections library actually work as desired.
That’s so strange, one of the first things my searches turned up is “Disable the TMDb Box Sets plugin because it causes problems”…
Weird, because it is what enabled the functionality I had hoped for with the Collections section. I just had to make sure I turned off the native functionality.
