File naming gone funny within season? help

HI everyone
Having a interesting issue with plex file naming, iv tried a few things but nothing seems to have worked so turning here for help. I have highlighted the issues in the attached image.

The file structure matches what plex required (and other seasons are working file)
and I have looked for extra meta data within the file but cant find any (Unless its hidden somewhere?)

I have removed the season, cleaned everythign and re added
The episodes show up as episode 1, episode 2 etc
Then when the metadata refreshes it goes back to this with the funny names.

Any ideas?
Thanks

I had a look with mp3tag. has no tags on any of the files.
So not sure why some are getting the names right and some are not

Done the Dance
Still showing the funny names, Same files as well by the looks of it

I’m still of the opinion that it has to do with embedded metadata.

Try this:
Go to

  • Settings - Server - Agents - Shows - TheTVDB

In there, grab the line ‘Local Media Assets’ with your mouse and drag it downwards, so it ends up being at the bottom of the stack of active agents.
Repeat the same under

  • Settings - Server - Agents - Shows - TheMovieDatabase
  • Settings - Server - Agents - Movies - Plex Movie
  • Settings - Server - Agents - Movies - TheMovieDatabase

Afterwards, ‘Refresh Metadata’ of the whole series.

Thats seems to have fixed it, thanks :slight_smile:
