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.
So, just to give a different perspective. I don't do that, all movies are in one folder, and it works still. Might be worth to try of course.
