Let me know what movies show up as duplicates. Thanks for looking at this. I kid you not. I was beginning to do this and I started by syncing (only) the titles that were duplicating. I was going to let Plex duplicate the files and then I was going to remove all 10 titles, perform the [plex dance](https://forums.plex.tv/t/the-plex-dance/197064), re-sync them and pull the logs. This time though it worked for some reason!? You have no idea how many times I’ve performed the [plex dance](https://forums.plex.tv/t/the-plex-dance/197064) with these titles. As I stated on the first post; I’ve also deleted and re-created the entire library location. This is clearly a bug that I hope you guys can get to the bottom of, but these titles are now showing up correctly. If I can leave this thread open I can try to get you those logs the next time this occurs. For now, I’d like to leave the titles synced over if you don’t mind. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.plex.tv/t/how-do-i-fix-the-duplicate-file-issue/224924)._
