Plug-in ignoring "minimum number of movies" setting.
Based on this forum thread
I have the TMDb Box Sets plug-in, with "minimum number of movies" set to three. For collections with 3 or more movies, everything works fine. The issue is that is creates collections with just 2 movies (despite the setting), and then those collections don't have images or metadata. It's like the plugin creates the folder in\Jellyfin\Server\data\collections\ (which JellyFun server then picks up on), but then doesn't do anything with it because it has too few items.
Example of the relevant log entries (after I added The Bourne Identity and later The Bourne Supremacy): [2024-07-17 10:16:51.368 -04:00] [INF] [8] Jellyfin.Plugin.TMDbBoxSets.TMDbBoxSetManager: Minimum number of movies is 3, but there is/are only 1: "The Bourne Identity" --> No collection added (as expected) [2024-07-17 23:09:44.684 -04:00] [INF] [8] Jellyfin.Plugin.TMDbBoxSets.TMDbBoxSetManager: Minimum number of movies is 3, but there is/are only 2: "The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy" --> Collection added, with no images (not as expected) [2024-07-17 23:12:35.345 -04:00] [INF] [63] Jellyfin.Plugin.TMDbBoxSets.TMDbBoxSetManager: Minimum number of movies is 3, but there is/are only 2: "The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy" [2024-07-17 23:22:12.918 -04:00] [INF] [45] Jellyfin.Plugin.TMDbBoxSets.ScheduledTasks.RefreshLibraryTask: Starting TMDbBoxSets refresh library task [2024-07-17 23:22:14.758 -04:00] [INF] [45] Jellyfin.Plugin.TMDbBoxSets.TMDbBoxSetManager: Found 67 TMDb collection(s) across all movies ....

Separately, I opened up Jellyfin.Plugin.TMDbBoxSets.dll in Notepad, and found the following text:
- $('#minimum-movies', page).val(config.MinimumNumberOfMovies || "2");
- config.MinimumNumberOfMovies = parseInt(minimumNumberOfMovies) || "2";
If I'm reading that right, then it's falling back to 2 because something somewhere isn't (correctly) pulling the value from the configuration page.
I'm running Jellyfin v10.9.6 on a Windows 7 Pro PC (SP1, 64-bit); Jelly BoxSets version 11.0.0.
I am also having this issue after removing and readding my libraries.
I have it set to 2 but its adding single movies to collections by themselves which is fun. Ended up just disabling grouping under library\display for now.
UPDATE:
Was able to fix by deleting data\collections\ and re-scraping.

This didn't work for me.
I have (nearly?) the same issue: I get box sets for just one movie (the limit is set to two) - even if there doen't even exit more than one movie. Best example: Kung Fury (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kung_Fury) There isn't even a second movie out (yet?), but there seems to (already) exist a box set - for whatever reason. But even if there would be more than one movie - I don't have them.
Nonetheless the box set gets created - every time again. The box set-folder on disk is empty, but the box set keeps coming back, even when I delete it.

And after that - the movie isn't even added to that box set!
But I also have box sets with only one movie - but without additional infos:
Please investigate on that. Kung Fury is free, you can get it from https://archive.org/details/KungFury or from YouTube. You can test with that.
I will happily provide more infos or logs, if it can help.
Well... since here is no movement at all... Should we report this somewhere else? It messes up my whole library...
