Date-based naming - files with the same date

Plex Media Server Metadata & Adding Files
1

Server Version#: 4.22.3
Player Version#: Multiple (ATV, iOS, Android, etc…)

I have a TV Show library that I’d like to use date-based naming. These are home movies so my agent is set to Personal Media. However, it seems episodes that “aired” (recorded) on the same date experience metadata overlapping. For example:

File name: Christmas – 2019-12-25 – Opening presents.mp4
Metadata title: “Opening presents”

File name: Christmas – 2019-12-25 – Secret Santa.mp4
Metadata title: “Secret Santa”

File name: Christmas – 2019-12-25 – Dinner.mp4
Metadata title: “Dinner”

In this example all 3 videos show in the library but they are all show “Dinner” as the title of the video.

Any thoughts on how to correct this behavior?
