Plex Media Server Metadata & Adding Files
4

Plex Documentation → Your Media → Naming & Organizing TV Show Files

Follow Plex recommended naming and organization for TV shows.
/TV Shows/ShowName (year) {tvdb-12345}/Season xx/ShowName (year) sXXeYY.ext

  • Adding the TVDB or TMDB ID to the folder name is optional, but tells Plex the exact match.
  • sXXeYY is mandatory. Do not try to use alternate naming structures such as 0x01, etc.
  • If all episodes are in a single file, you can either a) split it into individual episodes, or b) use the Multi Episodes in a Single File naming. See support doc linked above for details.
  • After renaming / restructuring a show, Plex Dance the entire series. This removes incorrect matching information from the Plex database.
