I am using Jellyfin.Server 10.4.3.0 (Turnkey Linux container, Debian OS), I added new library of type "TV Shows" for video tutorials and pointed to the path where the media is located.

The media is in the below structure and format:
3D Buzz - MMO Development Class
- Part 01 - Part 01 - Chapter 1 the beginning
- P01E01 - Wecome to the class.mp4
- P01E02 - Story concept initial proposal.mp4
...
- Part 02 - Chapter 2 making some noise
- P02E01 - Random num gen rd session 4 pt 1.mp4
- P02E02 - Random num gen rd session 4 pt 2.mp4
...

In the web interface the "Seasons" are detected correctly but in each season the video files are in wrong order; for example in "Part 01 - Part 01 - Chapter 1 the beginning" (this folder contains 72 video files) the order of the files is
- P01E01 - Wecome to the class
- P01E02 - Story concept initial proposal
- P01E06 - Lees testing framework for rd
- P01E03 - Meeting 11 story concept 1
- P01E07 - Lees terrain rd pt 1
...

The odd thins is that in "Part 02 - Chapter 2 making some noise" (this folder contains 55 video files) the files are ordered like it should.

I found that in the "Metadata Manager", the files that have a number at the end are detected and put in wrong order

I have updated to latest stable version (10.5.5). The metadata that I corrected was altered (automatically) with the incorrect episode number.

The issue still persists.
