Support for *.disc files ?

[Philmo67]

Hello,
I materialize the physical DVDs and Blurays, which I have not yet ripped, as *.disc files, in the directories indexed by Jellyfin (following the conventions defined for KODI, here https://kodi.wiki/view/Media_stubs ).
This way, my entire collection is indexed without a hitch by Jellyfin and, either Jellyfin or KODI, when you want to watch the film, tells you to insert the disc in question into the disc drive.
However, Jellyseerr does not consider these films to be available.
I can, of course, manually tag these films as available when someone asks for them, but is there a way for Jellyseerr to take these films, which are present in Jellyfin, into account?

[Philmo67]

Seems to be addressed by #522 (or not ?)

[Fallenbagel]

Does the nfo contain streamdetails? If it contains it will mark them no matter what extension. #522 is for automatic purging. Not related

[Philmo67]

<fileinfo>
    <streamdetails />
  </fileinfo>

so no streamdetail.
Maybe there's something to investigate in the *.disc file so that Jellyfin can insert elements about the stream in the nfo file.
Thanks for the hint.

jellyseerr needs to check resolution to determine whether its a 4k available badge or normal badge.

Would there be a way to automate something ?

If you store nfo files with the media, jellyfin will usually write down the streamdetails. So you could write a script to play each media to get the streamdetails. Or add bogus stream details (might face complications but in my testings jellyfin replaced any bogus stream details with the correct ones when you play)

[Philmo67]

But *.disc files are not playable, they trigger a popup telling you to play the physical media (and KODI is able to read title and message tags in them so you can tell the physical disc label and where to find the media for example).
I will try to add bogus stream details using external tools in the nfo files, hoping they won't get destroyed later.

Subsidiary question arising : I also have 3D bluray media (ripped and physical), interpreted and displayed as such by Jellyfin.
You have to use the adequate 3D naming convention here : https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/media/movies/
It seems the 3D "option" is not taken into account by Jellyseerr at all, right ?

We dont track if a media is 3D or not.

I've just noticed that when I do the same with *.disc files for my TV shows, Jellyseer automatically detects their presence in Jellyfin and suggests "Play on Jellyfin" (triggering a popup telling you to play the physical media).
Perhaps here would be a hint to do something similar for movies?

[Fallenbagel]

The issue is the streamDetails missing. In movies we use the stream details to determine whether 4k or not before registering it as available or not.

In case of shows, there's no streamdetails for tv show top level. So we can determine if it's available or not before checking individual episodes for its width

[Philmo67]

I've been unable to get the dummy streamdetails information added to the *.disc files related *.nfo files taken into account (full library scan on the Jellyfin side and restart of various sync tasks on the Jellyseerr side).
I use *arrs as a rip renaming tool, so movies present as *.disc files on the Jellyfin side are absent from radarr, could this also be part of the problem? (This is also the case for TV shows in sonarr, but as mentioned above, Jellyseerr takes them into account).

[Fallenbagel]

No the media does not need to be on radarr/sonarr. As mentioned earlier, TV shows work because they take the streamdetails into account after marking the show; when checking the episode resolutions.

As for movies there's no parent (in case of shows there's a hierarchy, shows > seasons > episodes [where streamdetails are]), tv shows gets marked available due to that. I guess we could add logic so that if the resolution is not found, just mark it as available for movies 🤔

[Philmo67]

That would make sense : the movie is available if a file supported by the media server is available
