Tips, updates, and guides from the JellyWatch team.
Jellyfin has no built-in Discover tab - by design. But in 2026, community plugins bring Netflix-style recommendations without sending your data anywhere. This guide covers LocalRecs (ML-based, 100% local), jellynext (Trakt-powered per-user libraries), and smart collection strategies for a personalized streaming experience.
Correct file naming is the foundation of a working Jellyfin library. This complete guide covers naming conventions for movies, TV shows, anime (absolute numbering), music, multi-version files, extras, specials, and collections - with copy-paste examples for every edge case and common mistakes to avoid.
Learn how to create collections, smart playlists, and curated rows in Jellyfin to transform your library into a polished streaming experience your users will love.
