Duplicate subtitles

Plex can be picky about naming and organization, especially when it comes to subtitles and TV shows.

Follow Plex’s Media Preparation guidelines.

For movies: Naming Movie Files

It is best to use nested folders, with one movie per folder. For example:

/Movies
   /Avatar (2009)
      Avatar (2009).mkv
   /Batman Begins (2005)
      Batman Begins (2005).mp4
      Batman Begins (2005).eng.srt

Plex is more strict when it comes to TV shows. See Naming series & Season Based TV Shows.

The desired structure is:

/TV Shows
   /Grey's Anatomy
      /Season 01
         Grey's Anatomy - s01e01.avi
         Grey's Anatomy - s01e02 - The First Cut is the Deepest.avi
         Grey's Anatomy - s01e03.mp4
      /Season 02
         Grey's Anatomy - s02e01.avi
         Grey's Anatomy - s02e02.mkv
         Grey's Anatomy - s02e03.m4v

After making any changes you’ll need to re-scan the library. You may also have to perform the Plex Dance if a re-scan does not pick up the changes.
