When I make external subtitles for tv shows Plex cannot find them if I put them all in the same folder. If I create additional folders Plex will find and apply the subtitles correctly. I’d rather not create a new folder for each episode so what is going on here?? Please see attached
Here is when Plex will find the external subtitles;
And when I group multiple files in the same parent Plex is no longer able to find them correctly
I’d really appreciate some help on this topic 
after refreshing metadata I would examine the local media log to see if there are any errors. There is a “Plug-in logs” folder in the logs folder. ( or download the zip with everything from the troubleshooting section of server settings)
Thanks for the link, I’ll correct the media file organization soon. Would this effect the issue I’m experiencing with external subtitles?
I’ll check the logs after re-organizing my media per trumpy81’s suggestion
Ok I moved my Plex files to a media folder per @trumpy81
@BigWheel, the issue has not gone away - here is a sample of the logs. I moved episode one and the subtitles into their own folder named ‘01’
As you can see it cannot find the subtitles for any episode except the one I moved into its own folder. Here are the folders on the NaS.

And a look inside the ‘01’ folder

I’m at a total loss so any help is greatly appreciated
