Dueling "Suspects"

Plex Media Server Metadata & Adding Files

SNARK ON. :slight_smile:

ATTENTION: There are 2 shows that appear to be detected as a single show because the word “the” in the title seems to be unused to differentiate between the shows. I ‘suspect’ that this has happened before. (see what I did there).

I was unable to find the newer show until I looked at the similarly names show and selected “SPLIT APART.”

Plex Documentation → Your Media
→ Naming & Organizing Your TV Show Files
→ Naming & Organizing Your Movie Files

Add TMDB/TVDB ID tags to the folder names (and TMDB/IMDB ID tags to movie folder/file names). Plex will pick up the ID tags and list them separately.

/TV Shows
.../The Suspect (2022) {tvdb-410905}
....../Season 01
........./The Suspect (2022) s01e01.mkv
.../Suspect (2022) {tvdb-420308}
....../Season 01
........./Suspect (2022) s01e01.mkv
