I’m at a loss to explain it. Last shot in the dark from me is does a [plex dance](https://forums.plex.tv/t/the-plex-dance/197064) of the files help? Just the posters.

Maybe as it’s only a rename and the file itself is not changed (checksum) plex is remapping the files internally in the db when you rename them. Total speculation …

Lets see if someone else has an idea.
