Swedish specifically.
Here are some that the metadata disappeared from when switching:
https://thetvdb.com/series/93071-show
https://thetvdb.com/series/wallace-and-gromits-world-of-invention
https://thetvdb.com/series/timon-and-pumbaa
They have Swedish titles/descriptions on TVDB but it’s probably picking up the TMDB entries instead?
@drzoidberg33 any plans to add TVDb Alternate Ordering (aka Netflix)?
No other problems with the agent so far with about 2000 series, good job 
OK, I’ve tried it exactly like you said.
Before I’ve created the library on the “Plex for Mac” app. Now I did it via app.plex.tv and followed your steps exactly.
Here are the logs:
Plex Media Server Logs_2021-03-10_13-26-25.zip (4.3 MB)
The description for “Friends” was (Korean I guess) and it didn’t recognize this tv show:
Screenshot and logs are attached
Thanks! Found what I needed in your new logs.
So it’s matching correctly now? I see Beavis and Butthead matched fine in the logs.
I do see something very odd in the logs where is looks like all the episodes are the same file, and it’s confusing the server as it thinks every episode is the previous episode. Are these real episodes in this path?
Also your naming is wrong which is why it can’t match Friends.
Friends (2004-2007)/ Those years are going to confuse the matcher as it will think it’s looking for a show in 2004, which Friends is not.

Nope!
After I’ve heard about the new Plex Scanner I’ve “simulated” the tv shows with a single test file (video and audio) to test is the client shows a dynamic picture and plays some sound. I don’t have many TV shows and didn’t want to copy the whole tv show folder to save some storage. Because a blank .txt file renamed to .mp4 gave me a “unable to play” (of course 
) messages.
So I’ve used this file
Lego (5 Sec MP4 Testfile) [320p].mp4.zip (372.2 KB), copied and renamed it to something like this:
Beavis and Butt-Head - S01E01 - Door-To-Door (1993) [720p]
Beavis and Butt-Head - S01E02 - Give Blood (1993) [720p]
In every folder of this library there is the same “Lego” file. But does Plex compare some files by it’s md5 hash or similar? Because maybe they are the same file but each one has it’s own unique name.
But maybe this was the mistake I’ve made.
This show has always been troublesome in plex:

But with the previous scanner it was fine, if you got the episode numbers right. Now with the new scanner/agent, it places episodes in arbitrary seasons and gives them the wrong episode numbers.
E.g. Gaki no Tsukai - S2007E837 - Title.mkv places it in s08e837.
The format i used for many years was Gaki no Tsukai - S2007E837 [0837] [2007-01-07] - Title and that worked fine, but with this new scanner/agent it just craps itself.
Thanks for the report and the example, I’ll look into it!
Quick question, what is your full path? Is this episode inside a Season 2007 folder?
\Shows\Downtown no Gaki no Tsukai ya Arahende!!\Season 2007\Gaki no Tsukai - S2007E837 [0837] [2007-01-07] - No-Laughing Police Station Unseen Footage.avi
that’s its current path, so yes it’s in a season folder
edit: i would revamp the entire episode catalogue myself to something more sane, but tvdb interface sucks
I think they said it’s on the way but the code didn’t make it into the beta.
I don’t mind TMDB or TVDB ratings but… IMDB seems more generic than the other two (all of the “top rated shows” at TMDB are anime for example which suggests user base demographics for TV show tracking).
Thanks, tracked down the problem and have a fix for it which will land in a future release.
I deleted all the libraries I had built yesterday to test it out and started from scratch today with different names for the libraries and it seems to be working today.
So I have just been testing the naming conventions for extras and find there is some leeway from what is written in the first post. so I was just looking at adding some deleted scenes to Community, and did this.
Community - S01E05 - Advanced Criminal Law
Community - S01E05 - Advanced Criminal Law Alternative Scenes-deleted
I was expecting this not to work, but it still picks this up as a deleted scene but only displays Advanced Criminal Law and not the Alternative Scenes,
So knowing this can I name my files with the extra info or am I going to be in a world of pain later on and it is likely to mess things up for other clients?
okay! thank you
While this is perfectly possible for show/season level extras, there’s no schema to derive the extra name from the file name for episode level extras.
Based on the current approach you should match the episode file name 100% and only add the extra type suffix (optionally with a number if there’s more extras of that type).
Unsure if this is a bug or something that can’t be done??
I updated to the BETA build and refreshed my TV library to get the TMDB ratings, As I’m In the UK the scraper was changed accordingly for UK age ratings and the series were scraped with UK certificates but every episode still has US age ratings. Added a fresh TV show and it’s still happening. Any ideas?
Local Extras do not work on the Season level, even though I follow the instructions.
/Futurama
/Season 1
/Featurettes
Name.mkv
My client is Plex for macOS.
Any idea what’s wrong?
If I put folder /Featurettes in the main /Futurama folder, Plex picks them up. But I want to attribute them to the respective seasons.
With what app are you checking if those season-level featurettes have been added?
Plex Web will only show local extras for shows.
From what I remember you will only see season/episode level extras in Plex for iOS and Android (mobile)
Plex app for macOS.
