All types of Movie extras are incorrectly categorized as "Extras".

As the title suggests, after naming subfolders according to the specifications, all content, including "Special Programs," "Interviews," and other subfolders, is categorized as "Additional Content" on the video details page.

There are no nested folder errors; the content of all subfolders is correctly recognized, even the "other" folder. Only the "Trailers" folder's content is not recognized.

I am using version 4.9.3.0, and I have set the "Multi-Version Item Detection" in the media library to "File-Based Multi-Version Item Detection." I don't know the cause of the problem or how to solve it. I haven't considered whether the issue occurred after the update; should I roll back to a previous version?

Pretty sure that is how it is contained. I don't remember there ever being support for having these folders show up with their content, as said content. They all just get tossed into "extras".

I think it's on the dev teams to do list, with so many other features. Maybe staff will chime in and give you a knowledgeable answer.

All right, I've noticed this note. I'm not sure if my memory is playing tricks on me, but I recall seeing "Trailers" and "Short Films" rows before.

However, even if these aren't errors, the "Trailers" folder still can't be recognized. Does it have a specific organizational structure?

What do you mean by "still can't be recognized"? Are you expectin to see them trailers listed? They won't show, they'll just be played when"Trailers" button is clicked/pressed. As for all the other extras, it is as @RanmaCanadasaid:

How is this response helpful? It's very obvious from their post what the problem is, and that Emby is behaving as designed. @GrimReaperand @RanmaCanadahave already provided the correct information.

It really does seem like you just copy-paste this into threads without reading them, and it becomes very frustrating, especially on the (increasingly frequent) occasions where those instructions are followed and it's then days/weeks before any further response.

To enlarge on this a little: the way to get separate folders to remain visible as such in Emby is to specifically avoid using the names it recognises - precisely because those get combined!  However, if these "unrecognised" folders contain names which Emby recognises as being specials (e.g. with s00e0n in the name) these may appear in the Specials folder as well - care and experimentation is required to get a tidy result, and future versions of Emby may break it again, because it's not supported.
