I have several recordings of The Simpsons that Plex can’t find a match for. The file ends up being called “The Simpsons (1989) - 2022-12-31 18 30 00 - The Simpsons” which will never match anything. I have to manually rename the file once I figure out which episode it is.

Is there a way to address this issue or for Plex to skip TV episodes that don’t match anything?

You can blame the local station for the data it turns over to Gracenote. Just assume that if it isn’t a news broadcast and has a date instead of SeasonEpisode that you will have to rename the show after recording.
