The first thing I would check is duplicates. Sometimes if your naming is off Plex will match movies that have similar titles that get hidden In the library ![Screenshot (506)](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/4X/e/5/7/e5705d0d92c9b5ffabc32bfd7686d527a368d911.png) I never used it but I think there’s a way to check this using Tautulli > **[Tautulli](https://tautulli.com/)** > > A Python based monitoring and tracking tool for Plex Media Server ---

Also, collections. If Plex added some of your movies to Collections, and the library is set to not show movies that are in collections, the number will be lower than you expect. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/4X/a/3/1/a31a7ee6392bf0353f5c6fac77a8b1047ac5284a.jpeg) ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/4X/f/4/5/f452e0315425a49d74163f4a29ffa7e2d2695f4c.jpeg) ---

if you have any movies with Part 1 and part 2 at the end of file names it would also combine them and treat like it is one movie and not show as a duplicate like I think the last two harry potter movies. to avoid that use roman numerals. Part I and Part II ---

You can install webtools from your computer then sign into it with your Plex account to access your server. it is a third party tool one of our employees made before he started working here which does various things. Its docs are here [Home · WebTools-NG/WebTools-NG Wiki · GitHub](https://github.com/WebTools-NG/WebTools-NG/wiki) ---
