Using folder names instead of file names for identification?

Hi!

 

Recently wanted to try out Emby as a replacement for Kodi. However, the library scan finds almost nothing. I believe the problem is that it only considers file names, not folder names. For example, most of my library looks something like

 

> TV Show name (folder)

 > S01E01 (folder)

  > file

 

Is there a way to tell Emby to use folder names when identifying movies and TV shows, rather than file names? I've checked the wiki and googled it, but can't determine if this is possible.

 

Thanks in advance.

Unless that "file" is a folder-rip format (like video_ts) that is not a supported structure for TV.
