    Not if I want/need to seed both versions. Then it’s a third version I need to keep on disk for a few weeks, instead of just two. Believe me, I’ve had this idea too, and have remuxed several movies to save space. 👍

      Looking back at this thread. Jellyfin does let you select both versions and combine them into one. Then you can keep seeding to your heart’s content.

      I don’t use that feature often, but have a couple movies that use it.

        That’s simpler and better (nondestructive) than renaming files, for sure. Still an extra step I need to take vs not having to do so.

      Fair enough, I’m mostly ripping my own discs so being a good torrent citizen isn’t always top of mind.
