I have a few shows that Jellyfin isn't able to fetch the proper metadata for; they just display blank in the listings with only the original filename. Is it possible for me to select that show, and manually override Jellyfin to identify it as a specific show without renaming the actual file?

Whilst you can override it manually, I heartily recommend modifying the folder/file names so that autodetection works correctly.

Otherwise you'll end up just manually fixing it again next time there's a significant library change.

On that note, is there a way to find the media for which I used the identify function? And cancel to return it to its default state ?

Not that I'm aware of.
The information would certainly be in the database, but I don't know how to access it.
