I have done some searches and see lots of folks asking about files that are not picked up via a Plex library scan. I figure those folks are looking for something specific that should be there. I cant seem to find a thread with the opposite question.
What I cant figure out if there is a way to tell if Plex is overlooking something that is there and it cant figure out for one reason or another. Is there a function or plugin that shows items not picked up by a scan? I have a feeling I’ve got plenty but I have no idea what they are.
This is helpful thanks.
I know that first and foremost its naming, naming, naming though its hard to know what to rename without some tools. There are only so many hours available in a day.
It’ll breeze through most of your collection before you could manually change one file. I stubbornly did it all by hand for years; to make sure I knew what I was doing and because it’s literally so simple to use, I couldn’t figure it out,
It used to be a free download; but I think it’s only for sale in various app stores; but whatever they’re charging, it’s totally worth it.
I have used the default and also tried the Plex settings. 99% of the time the default works well while I always seemed to have an issue with the Plex labeling.
@hancat I would try both and see which works best for you.
All seasons are 2-digit field (except when seasons are published as 4-digit values) as are episode numbers. Greater than 100 episodes per season easily handled as well with padding. All this to make maintenance (directory listings) cleaner and easy to read.
