If this has beed asked before, sorry, did not find it
I am trying to create a library that contains all my David Attenborough tv shows, I have many different shows and at the moment each is its own library. I will give a couple of examples in the hope that someone can show me how to do this 
I show called Kingdom of Plants, i season and 3 episodes. Another called Life Story, 1 season and 6 episodes
Thanks for any help
The only solution that I know of is to move the files all into a single folder. Then, create a new library that points only to this folder and title it however you like. If you also want them to appear in your other TV Shows directory as well, you can re-add the new folder to the original library and it should mix the two seamlessly.
Thanks for the answer
They are all in 1 folder called tv shows, then sub folder called attenborough then each show has its own folder below that
Well, we might be talking about two different things.
First, there’s the physical location of the files as they exist in your setup.
Second, there’s how Plex looks at these areas.
I assume you have one massive TV folder where all of your shows live? Then, when you set up your Plex libraries, you pointed your TV Shows library in Plex to this folder?
correct, thats what I have, every tv show is in that folder
Ok. Plex doesn’t have any way to group TV Shows at the moment.
What you would need to do is create a new folder Called “David_Rocks” or whatever you like at the same level as your current TV shows. You can then copy or move your Attenborough shows to this new folder (Attenborough/Name of Show/rest of your content)
In the Plex Web App, to the right of Library, you would create a new one (plus sign I think) and point it to this new folder.
This would remove it from your main TV Shows directory (unless you left a copy there) and group them all together into their own library.
I would recommend moving over copying them. The bonus is that you will only have to make changes to these shows once. If you copy them, you’d have to make changes twice. This will remove them from your TV Shows library and they won’t be mixed in with the rest of your shows. We can work around that though if you want them to appear in both libraries.
Let me know if I’ve lost you here.
I’ll give it try and report back, thanks
Ok did that and it works so big than you It is a shame that there is no way to group tv shows but this method works for me, once again thanks
Excellent! Another happy customer.
Step one is to find your show at TVDB and name it like they do:
TVDB: https://www.thetvdb.com/
https://www.thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=259418&lid=7 - David Attenborough’s Kingdom of Plants (2012)
https://www.thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=287019&lid=7 - Life Story (2014)
Note: Plex’s latest design disaster requires the (YEAR) addition to TVDB Show Names for shows that have ‘reboots/remakes’. I have set my Filebot program (link in my signature) to add (YEAR) to ALL TV Shows. It’s a work-around that works. Technically, you don’t need (YEAR) for these shows, but it doesn’t hurt - I will include them in my examples.
Step two is the follow the naming and structuring guide for TV Shows:
https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/200220687-Naming-Series-Season-Based-TV-Shows
The result:
A TV Show Library/ <— typically something like: G:\TV Shows
…David Attenborough’s Kingdom of Plants (2012)
…Season 01
…David Attenborough’s Kingdom of Plants (2012) - S01E01 - Episode Name Optional.xxx
…David Attenborough’s Kingdom of Plants (2012) - S01E02.xxx
…Life Story (2014)
…Season 01
…Life Story (2014) - S01E01 - Episode Name Optional.xxx
…Life Story (2014) - S01E02.xxx
You can also have a TV Show Library dedicated to Documentaries - I have one of those myself:
Another TV Show Library/ <— G:\TV Documentaries\, for instance
…David Attenborough’s Kingdom of Plants (2012)
…Season 01
…David Attenborough’s Kingdom of Plants (2012) - S01E01 - Episode Name Optional.xxx
…David Attenborough’s Kingdom of Plants (2012) - S01E02.xxx
…Life Story (2014)
…Season 01
…Life Story (2014) - S01E01 - Episode Name Optional.xxx
…Life Story (2014) - S01E02.xxx
I have 4 TV Show Libraries, 21 Movie Libraries (to set up genres and sorting and such) and one Other Videos Library to drop trash into that won’t match so I can watch and delete without having to worry about proper names and structures.
