I have Harry Potter and the deathly hallow and it combine the movies. I researched this topic and it said to go into the movie and chose split apart. However, I do not have that option. Any ideas on how to fix this?
So you do not see the option Spilt Apart when accessing the Detail View of the film?

I have the hunger games that did the same thing and do not have that option to split apart
Don’t let the filenames end in part1and part2 otherwise Plex thinks you want the movie files stacked.
There needs to be at least the release year in parentheses after and maybe some extraneous info about resolution or sound format.
These file names won’t get stacked:
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 (2010) - 1080p.ext
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 (2011) - 1080p.ext
(and they’re according strictly to the Plex file name guides)
Where should I change the name files at? On my external hard drive where the movie are located or with the plex software?

Plex doesn’t touch your files. So you must rename them directly on your media storage disk.
I will try that when I get home. Thanks for the input.
I have done as stated above but the movies have stayed together. any other suggestions?
