I’ve got my library just as I want it, and have made a couple of changes to the <sorttitle> in my movies’ .nfo files.

This is fine for a day or so, and then Jellyfin decides to overwrite my .nfo files.

I have them set to “lock” via tinyMediaManager but it doesn’t seem to make any difference. Every day it’ll reorder some movies in my library.

Pretty sure I’ve also disabled the image plug-ins in the library so it shouldn’t be pulling any metadata from anywhere.

Not a huge deal but incredibly frustrating — I want my library showing movies in a certain order and it’s driving me nuts when they’re rearranged 🤣

Any ideas?

TIA.

you could mount your media as read only :ro assuming you use a container

How will that work when new media is added to my library, though? Will it add it without any metadata?

I use tiny media manager for nfo files. Jelyfin just read, no write.
