I just fished out a very old DVD set of Hooked on Phonics. I’m not sure I can even rip all the discs given their current state.

However, in case I’m successful, I looked it up on tvdb and tmdb and did not find any entry so I don’t know how to name the files so that I get metadata and the like about them.

Does anyone know of a source, agent, or other way of giving metadata and if should treat it like a TV show or a bunch of movies

Metadata for educational content is very hard to come by.  
Maybe these videos are also available here? [https://www.youtube.com/hookedonphonics](https://www.youtube.com/hookedonphonics)  
Or maybe you can find descriptions etc. on their website: [https://www.hookedonphonics.com](https://www.hookedonphonics.com)

My guess would be that the only viable way would be to create .nfo files for these videos. Then use the new support for nfo files in a dedicated TV Show library in Plex: [https://forums.plex.tv/t/plex-nfo-agent-forum-preview/936104/1](https://forums.plex.tv/t/plex-nfo-agent-forum-preview/936104/1)

Thanks. I’ll give it a shot then get back to you tomorrow once I’ve ripped all the items that I can. I may use the YouTube channel for anything that is on a damaged disc.
