Incorect Information in the TVDB

I have an old 80’s TV series called V. There were three parts to this. The original TV miniseries, the final battle, and the actual TV series which had 1 season with 19 episodes. The final battle matches fine but the one episode from the original TV miniseries keeps merging with episode 1 of the complete series. These are two separate episodes and it will not let me separate them. When I do a search only one entry is being pulled back and the date on it is incorrect. The date is for the original TV miniseries but the episode information is for the complete series. Below are the two links for the IMDB entries.

V: The Original Miniseries - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085106/

V: The Complete Series - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086822/?ref_=nm_knf_i3

Is there a way to update the database so these show as separate items?

plex uses The TVDB for tv metadata.

you can go create an account on the TVDB and submit requests/edits, but good luck, they are very picky about changes.

some series have ‘aired order’ and ‘dvd order’.

in plex, you can go to the show > edit > advanced > choose order

for the mini-series, you will need to name them according to the ‘specials’ season

s00e01 - The Original Miniseries (1)

The same goes for the final battle episodes. These are all specials.
