Server Version#: 1.15.6.1079

I have four seasons of a TV show. When I add a new library, I’ll choose the TV Show and give it the name of the TV show. I’ll add my folder (which contains sub-folders of every season). Under Advanced, I can choose for the agent: TheTVDB or The Movie Database.

If I pick TheTVDB, it’ll add all the seasons and shows, but give them strange TV show names.  
For example, I’ll add the TV show JAG - Season 1. When the library finishes updating, it adds it as Pokemon Season 4, or Batman Season 8. Then, when it processes Season 2, it’ll add it as The Brady Bunch Season 6. WTH??

> Server Version#: 1.15.4.994 Player Version#: I have created a custom library where I add the root folder of a TV Show to attempt to add all the seasons of said show. In the TV Shows section the correct number of seasons are displayed but when I add the root folder of the show to the custom library it does not add all the seasons. I’ve gone through the Plex guide on naming libraries, but I still have missing seasons in my library. Any idea on what I can do?

I set them up with their own Plex user accounts and then went into my libraries, and gave everyone their own Library and shared their respective library with them.

Did any of this information help?
