It’s part of the new Plex TV Scanner (currently only available in Beta). There are details in the first post on how to set it up for your existing library.
If the unmatched filter was added for convinent sake…pls NEVER remove it. It’s literally the only thing emby has over plex
For the love of god never remove it

Where are the episode pictures coming from, because i have season 18 from pokemon and all those episode pictures are from different season. While on TMDB all the season pictures are correct, but i cant select them. See pictures.
Appears to be this one: ポケットモンスター - アローラパンケーキ大レース！ - TheTVDB.com
Seems TVDB and TMDB are wildly different with episode orderings here so it’s likely a byproduct of that. I’m filing an issue, thanks for the report.
For shows this is coming from IMDb. Episode ratings are a bit of a new concept and aren’t really used anywhere, those should hopefully use IMDb at some point too but now they’re pull from whichever source has them.

No plans to remove the Unmatched filter.

Pokemon on TMDB needs a HUGE amount of work even outside of episode ordering. Lots of the later episodes are missing and have incorrect information.
For now I’d recommend using the TVDB aired ordering. It worked well at least for me.
I may try and update the TMDB at some point.
I went ahead and made an account for TMDB just for some shows that I was missing TMDB data (DuckTales (2017) missing so much data? C’mon). Doing so is pretty easy but can feel a bit clunky - their Contribution Bible is pretty well put together for guidelines.
Is it reasonable to discuss TMDB/TVDB/IMDB metadata sources in the Plex metadata topic? It’s not Plex specific so I wasn’t sure if discussing metadata sources related to Plex was okay or even useful.

It looks like Episode Extras also need to be in the same container type as the original in order to match, not just have matching suffixes.
IE:
Stargate SG-1 - S08E18 - Threads-deleted.m4v with match as an extra for Stargate SG-1 - S08E18 - Threads.m4v.
Stargate SG-1 - S08E18 - Threads-deleted.mkv will not match as an extra Stargate SG-1 - S08E18 - Threads.m4v
Just something to keep in mind if users have mixed content.
Same issue here - I have On Deck set for 2 weeks, and I have a lot of old shows now being displayed that have not been watched in months.
try to include a number… I don’t think the file format matters in this:
Stargate SG-1 - s08e18 - Threads.m4v
Stargate SG-1 - s08e18 - Threads-deleted1.m4v
Stargate SG-1 - s08e18 - Threads-deleted2.mkv
I remember drzoidberg mentioned that’s currently the only way to have multiple extras of the same type on episode level. Personally I’m still hoping for some refinement to allow us some kind of subfolder handling for the episode level local extras; e.g.
Stargate SG-1 - s08e18 - Threads.m4v
Stargate SG-1 - s08e18 - Threads-deleted
Deleted Scene 1.m4v
Deleted Scene 2.mkv
OR
Stargate SG-1 - s08e18 - Threads.m4v
Stargate SG-1 - s08e18-deleted
Deleted Scene 1.m4v
Deleted Scene 2.mkv
OR
Stargate SG-1 - s08e18 - Threads
Stargate SG-1 - s08e18 - Threads.m4v
Deleted Scenes
Deleted Scene 1.m4v
Deleted Scene 2.mkv
just some random rambling 
Edit:
I’d love to be able to include named deleted scenes for some episodes (where those extras had their own names on their source discs)

Adding the number did the trick on the MKV. There’s only one extra for the episode (I’m treating the extended version of the episode as an extra for test purposes). When the same container type, I don’t need the added -deleted1 I can just use -deleted. However, with different containers I do need to add the -deleted1. Easily enough to work around. Thanks!
Can someone comment on if this new agent system allows you to add-on third party agent data.
ThePosterDB is coming out with a Plex metadata agent and being able to utilize that and other custom agents in my main movie and TV libraries is way more important to me than whatever reason these new agents have been created.
No, it doesn’t. It’s like the Plex Movie agent.
Can you share information about this? I’ve seen “maybe sometime soon” and “it’ll be big news” for a long time.
Cool. I guess I’ll stick with the legacy TV agent just like I’m sticking with the legacy movie agent. Sad Plex is moving away from standard Plex features like this in-order to unify the app with its streaming business.
I don’t know more than you, it’ll come eventually. However, TPdb isn’t the only third-party agent I’m concerned about losing access to.
This is something I’m aware of, it’s unrelated to the new agent and is just how the On Deck query works. I’ll get a fix for On Deck to address this.
Anyone else notice that Generate intro video markers is not respecting the server side schedule ? I have Generate intro video markers set as a scheduled task but I just added a new show with one season and the intro detection was done immediately.
Logs attached:

Did not notice this with the old agent.
That “Unmatched” filter for episodes is truly awesome.
I didn’t know I had 6 unmatched episodes in several series. Solved it by changing the affected shows Episode ordering to TVDB from TMDB, where the episodes where missing.
Many thanks for that, @drzoidberg33 !

Hmm, nope cannot repro.
I can see calls to in the logs for it but I’m not totally sure which item I should be looking at and I can see manual calls to analyze which would trigger it.
I’ve set up extras as described in the support article but they’re not showing up in Plex. For example, I have:
Veronica Mars\Season 2\Veronica Mars S02E01.m4v
Veronica Mars\Season 2\Veronica Mars S02E01-deleted.m4v
But no extras are showing up on that episode. Am I getting something wrong?
