Curious if anyone can let me know why I get, and this just doesn’t happen in my anime section it happens in of all my TV shows, why do some shows bundle into series (Red) and others just do individual episodes as I circle in yellow, I’ve check appropriate settings and nothing seems incorrect and I’ve looked at the web NFO, everything seems legit.
any help will be appreciated.
TIA.
Recently Added bundles up into seasons or shows, depending on whether several episodes of the same show have been added in short succession.
This is to prevent the hub from becoming flooded with posters belonging to all the same show, if you are adding a whole season or show at once.
If you actually need a view that shows you all the episodes, use the library’s view, set to “Episodes”, sorted by Date Added.
… which by the way is very nice to have it this way.
Sorry I’m not being clear, This is on the Home page on my PC not on a TV, I understand what you’re saying, but every time a new episode is added why would some bundle into a season folder normally and some just keep spread out individually, and there is no options to do“Episodes”, sorted by Date Added. when you are working in the advanced tab in the Home screen, I’ve tried every option to fix it, I mean it’s not like a OMG i need it fixed it’s a crap OCD thing, more annoying why am I scrolling down this line to see whats added but have to go through all this 1 series first, so If I were to take “to be a hero X” and delete it all and reinstall it again into it’s folder all at once, instead of one at a time it’ll probably reconize it as one season instead of each epi. basically, weather or not I do it weekly?
And BTW thank you .
You could always create a smart collection named “Recently Added …” and configure it to include shows with episodes added in a particular timeframe, sorted by the most recently added episode. Something like:
You could then include it on your home screen (and remove Plex’s “Recently Added” hub).
I’m going to try this Thank you @pshanew
I seem to notice that the “Recently Added” combines episodes as long as there has been less than X time between adds. I have NOT tested, but I know it is less than 24 hours, as daily talk shows and 10 PM news never combined for me before.
If you were to take out the show and re-add it, well, they combine together because they were all added less than 24 hours apart.
Nice to know about a smart collection that can force one version over the other. Might do that on my own server…
It seems you are correct, If the episodes are concurrent within a 24 hour period, they will NOT post as single episodes in Recently added, so best I’ve deducted is I just remove the entire season and re add it back and it just bundles it into a full season and solves the problem, (Just wait till the season has ended till you do it) I just did it to all my Folders that were doing it, only took like 5 minutes, it’s not that big of a deal for something that’s just a Visual issue.
