[Help Needed] How to Get "Extras" in my LIbrary

Hi,

How can I have extras (like behind the scenes / interviews and trailers) when i update my lmovie library?
Can i do that with TV Series too?

I did not find any option that enable this feature.

THX,
Braz.

You cannot add extras to TV Shows.

That’s good for adding local asset extras, but there’s this page also for non-local extra content:

Once you set the options, the extras should get pulled upon a Refresh.
Please start small, try first with a few high-profile Hollywood movies and refresh them individually.
Wait a few minutes after pressing Refresh.

you’ll have bother with thumbnails on the local extras if your data is not local or network drive mapped. UNC paths causes a failure in loading a thumbnail. Just an FYI.

I’ve never seen this problem. Is there a thread about it or just a personal observation?

Hi!
Thanks @MovieFan.Plex @OttoKerner @beckfield @Liquidtoon

I will try to change the settings in my smallest library to see… I Really don´t get what @Liquidtoon said but all my data is in local drive. I already create one new library with the instructions links and it works fine. Now i will try to change another library. Let all know asap.

Thank you all :slight_smile:

After try to refresh… had no lucky to get the extras… So you have to create a new library!

I wouldn’t state that in this absoluteness.
Did you use TheMovieDatabase before as your primary agent? If so, you go to
Settings - Server - Agents - Movies - TheMovieDatabase
in there, put a check in front of the line ‘Plex Movie’ (you don’t need to rearrange the order of agents)
Then Refresh one of the movies again.
