Hi Hopefully some one has an answer to this issue, i have uploaded the entire Midsomer Murders Seasons & im having problems, 1: I’m struggling with how to break apart show episodes that were improperly grouped together, on the season, they are all in the same place, it shows up as 1 episode, but when i go deeper into it, there is say 6 or 7 in a group. Ive attached a couple SS, to show what i mean! ![group info](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/3X/0/5/05977276e6fbb0a62baa832bfad26bb443c03398.jpeg) ![group](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/3X/d/e/dec358ab30b0f4327d06191f2fc2bc6683f2f87d.png) How do i ungroup them please? 2: I have uploaded all 20 seasons but only a few are appearing, they are all labelled in the same way on my DSM.
