Single-video imports per playbook §1d (collectionType=movies): - Johnny Harris — Why the US is deporting so many people (20251031) - The Guardian — NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden (20130709) Snowden run exposed Jellyfin's single-file channel folder caveat: MovieResolver parses folder name as item title when only one media file exists. Worked around with PUT /Items/<id> Name + LockData=true. Documented in the run log for future hardening into playbook §1d.

|
## Subtitle status
|
|
|
|
- Embedded: yes — one English `mov_text` track from yt-dlp `--embed-subs`.
|
|
- External sidecar: yes — `.en.srt` next to the mp4 (Jellyfin will register it
|
|
as a second selectable subtitle track).
|
|
- Action: none. Plain English, no SDH/MT/AI tag per ARRFLIX subtitle style.
|
|
|
|
## Verification checks
|
|
|
|
- [x] Folder/filename canonical (`<Channel>/<Title> — <YYYYMMDD>.mp4`, date as suffix).
|
|
- [x] No forbidden chars in path.
|
|
- [x] Permissions `user:user` 644 / 755 (chmod safety net run server-side).
|
|
- [x] `Scan Media Library` triggered via `/ScheduledTasks/Running/<id>`,
|
|
`State` returned to `Idle`.
|
|
- [x] `/Items?searchTerm=Why+the+US+is+deporting` returns the single expected
|
|
item with `ImageTags.Primary` present, `ProviderIds` empty (expected for
|
|
Education library).
|
|
- [x] Direct-play in client browser (AV1 supported by Chromium >= 90).
|
|
- [ ] Mobile / Smart-TV direct-play not exercised.
|
|
|
|
## Notes / surprises
|
|
|
|
- Source upload available in 2160p AV1; 1080p cap per playbook §1e mandatory
|
|
for long-form (~45min) content.
|
|
- No metadata refresh needed — Local Posters picked up `<basename>.jpg` as
|
|
Primary on first scan; no Screen Grabber fallback.
|
|
- Single-file channel folder caveat does **not** apply here because the
|
|
Johnny Harris folder already contained 4 prior files; Jellyfin's
|
|
"movie-in-own-folder" heuristic only fires when there's exactly one media
|
|
file. See `the-guardian-snowden-2013-20130709.md` for the workaround when
|
|
importing the first video into a brand-new channel folder.
