Fix match using TMDB or IMDB ID number

[JuiceWSA]

Plex Movie won’t do Documentaries or TV Shows.

Name it this:

The Kingdom How Fungi Made Our World (2018)

The Kingdom: How Fungi Made Our World

Fix Match, Search Options, Agent drop down:
Select TMDB.
(the TMDB ID# trick doesn’t work all that well)

Got Docs?
Use TMDB.
Go there and find your Doc - name it that.
(or have Filebot do it for you in a fraction of a second)

Also, in future, for more stubborn items…

You can, Fix Match, and in Search Options, select from the Agent drop down Personal Media, then hand edit the item and make it anything you want. You already know where all the artwork and descriptions are.

Also for the item above - depending on how long you’ve been working on it under Plex’s watchful eye - you may want to Plex Dance that item for a complete Do-Over:

The Plex Dance ™

The purpose of this is to remove all cached metadata and xml data for an item that Plex usually keeps. This helps when you want to “start from scratch” for particular item move all files for the media item out of the directory your Library is looking at, so Plex will not “see” it anymore scan the library library (to detect changes) empty trash clean bundles (in menu next to server name, when accessed under ‘More’) double check naming schema and move files back scan the library Support articl…

A new bundle with all the right stuff in it - is always welcome in the Plexiverse.
