I have had similar issues with BD's going unreadable in certain areas. In my case, you can easily see the issue, as the protective covers I had been storing them in left a 'waffle' impression on the edges of a couple of the discs. Blu-rays write their data very similar to CD-R's and DVD's when used as data discs. Instead of concentric circles like an audio CD, data discs are written in sectors like the rings of a tree, except uniform in diameter. So long as the area of the disc that contains the file name / location information is undamaged, you can retrieve files from any part of the disc that hasn't been compromised.
I dunno if this has been mention, and I'm sorry if I have.
But I love JAV covers, so I was going nuts setting every folder to show the front of the cover in Window Explorer's thumbnail view...
Like this:
I used to do via the folder properties and the customize menu. But it took forever to do, and worse yet, if you moved the folder around or even the subfolder it would break. It sometime wouldn't update either. It was really really awful, and just garbage Windows implementation as usual. And then I found this magical trick!
If you actually name the cover "Folder.gif", regardless of what image type it is, it's going to always use that picture as the folder thumbnail. It's some god damn ancient holdover, but it works! It really works!

I was actually looking for a tutorial on how to use Javinizer as well since it requires so much setup. Powershell, Python, Pillow, etc. I really wish it was designed to be more simple. I ended up trying another tool called Jav-it, and it's working out great for me so far. I like the fact that because everything is self-contained, there is no need to install, configure, or fetch other components. You just download the program and let it rip! Unfortunately it isn't totally free to use (You need to make a small donation), but considering how hassleless and automated it makes things, I didn't mind supporting the author.
can you write guide about how to do this. i have both jellyfin and Javinizer and i dont know how to combine this 2 program
javinzer itseft can do thing even it has little bug.
but when i try to use it with plex or jellyfish then this dont work anymore.
or i dont no how to set up it .
i notice last comment are since 2020 . o may be something change again and plex or such thing dont like javinzer

Good thread. I organize my videos by actress' name, video code and putting them in respective folder based on genre.
Sounds like you might need to set Plex or Jellyfin to use local nfo files (sorry, I don't use Plex)
When adding a new library in Jellyfin, I un-check all metadata scrapers and then check the "Metadata savers: Nfo" box like the attached image.

One of many reasons I wouldn't use folder structures. I guess folder structures are needed by organization software but that to me is poor coding by the developers.
Normally if I have those compilation videos or feature various actress I'll name it as "Various - ONSD694"
Can anybody recommend a DLNA server compatible with common VR players (Pigasus, Skybox) AND multipart Videos?
Unfortunately these players cannot use the webinterface so they have to work with the DLNA-Structure which is fine by me, but only the first part of every movie is played (Metadata collected with javinizer and the option oneNFOperMovie. In the webinterface the additional parts appear but not in the DLNA mode)

I am using a Samba server on my NAS as well. Unfortunately as my collections is growing its difficult to organize the library just by folders. I would like to have tags/categories so better sort my videos. It is possible with DLNA but none of the DLNA-servers i've tried is supporting multiple parts in the non-webmode.
