Sort for duplicates.

Edit: Also try the [Plex Dance](https://forums.plex.tv/t/the-plex-dance/197064), and make sure to follow Plex naming requirements.

[Naming and organizing your Movie files](https://support.plex.tv/articles/naming-and-organizing-your-movie-media-files/)

You can add the TMDB/IMDB ID to the folder and file name. That tells Plex exactly which movie to match.

If you want to add info regarding resolution, audio, etc. place it in a single square bracket at the end of the folder/file name.

Example:

```auto
/movies
../Avatar (2009) {tmdb-19995} [other.info.here]
..../Avatar (2009) {tmdb-19995} [other.info.here].mkv

```
