Describe the feature you’d like
Add a “Series” tier within Studios.
Describe the benefits this would bring to existing users
More granular and accurate organization of scenes closer to how many studios themselves treat and organize their content.
Is there an existing way to achieve this goal?
Currently I see many series within Studios set up as Subsidiary Studios.
Additional context
While some adult entertainment companies do set up subsidiary studios dedicated to a series of videos, most of the time a series is completely handled by the original studio entity. I often see a prominent series set up as Subsidiary Studio in Stash as there is no other good way to handle it other than having the series name in the scene title. By adding a tier within Studios for Series we can have more granular organization that is more accurate and treat it a bit closer to a TV studio with different series like the companies do themselves. I understand that this would be a big undertaking in development time, and would lead to a lot of work for editors going back through content to slowly update existing content. It would very much be worth it, especially in the long term. The sooner something like this could be implemented, the less work there will be updating prior content.
Alongside this it would be useful for a feature for editors to be able to convert a Subsidiary Studio into a Series, but any time this edit is done it should require extra scrutiny to be sure.
