Wrong metadata/metadata mixed up between movies and shows #897

Describe the bug

When libraries are added/updated in the Jellyfin for Kodi plug-in, the metadata gets mixed up between movies and shows around 75% of the time. When you attempt playback, it will play the media of the wrong metadata as well. I suspect this is an issue with mixed libraries, as I'm sure someone else would have created an issue about this with normal movie/show libraries.

To Reproduce

  1. Setup Jellyfin for Kodi add-on (Adding server and logging in)
  2. Add/update a mixed library (I'll show my library setup down below in 'Additional Context'
  3. When the library is finished updating, click on a movie (I use 'Show Information' to open up an information panel of media | Settings>Media>Videos>Default select action
  4. See error

Expected behavior

Show correct metadata and playback correct media

Logs

I have a log, but is too big to upload here (149Mb lol), if needed I could split it up and upload it

System (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Ubuntu (Docker)
  • Jellyfin Version: 10.9.8
  • Kodi Version: 21.0
  • Addon Version: 1.0.4
  • Playback Mode: Add-On

Additional context

I have two libraries I import from jellyfin with the add-on: 4K and 1080p. Both of these are mixed libraries that each contain a 'Movies' and a 'TV Shows' folder within them containing media of the respective qualities and types. (eg. 4K jellyfin library points to a folder '4K,' that contains two sub-folders 'Movies' and 'TV Shows').

I noticed when each library is added with the add-on, it goes through the movies, and then the shows, so I wonder if it's an issue with the TV show metadata overwriting the movie metadata.

Love the work you guys do! If you need that log, please let me know!

This PR from a few years ago seems to fix something really similar: #160 , maybe the fix didn't apply to mixed libraries?

The use of mixed libraries is strongly discouraged in the first place, and it is not something I've ever personally tested with this addon.

I would highly recommend you split up your libraries, into separate movie and show libraries.

I'm unlikely to prioritize looking into this issue at all, unless someone can point to where the error is likely located.
