since I abandoned my old ticket #444 and decided to use the file exporter as an alternative, I've noticed that the file exporter strips slashes from the title template meaning the external folder needs to be a flat folder structure.
to attempt to create a show-like structure to be hosted by Jellyfin.
you can see slashes in the export menu that seem to imply that this would work:
but the exported file ends up in the root directory, taking on the entire title stripped of slashes:
also in case it wasn't clear I intend to use the auto exporter normally rather than manually exporting each file, but am using the manual export for this example - assuming they follow the same code path
Describe the solution you'd like
file exporter allows the user to use slashes to define a folder hierarchy of exported files.
Describe alternatives you've considered
this is the alternative to pointing jellyfin directly at the vods directory. that approach allowed jellyfin to read series/season/episode info from the folder hierarchy but stopped working eventually as the server would crash from attempting to read over 100 vods from its storage directory, as well as the UI becoming cluttered.

sorry I just got around to testing this but the new problem is that the export errors saying the path does not exist, for my use case it needs to create the target folders as it exports and can't expect them to already exist.
I mean maybe I could create one flat folder for every streamer like #472 but I'd like to avoid doing that, month-based "season" folders keeps things better organized and I don't want to have to manually create a new folder every time I add a new streamer.
