Plex uses IMDB & TMDB for movie information, not TVDB.
-
They are movies. Place them in a movie library and use the default Plex Movie scanner & agent.
-
Do not replace the colon, or any other illegal character, with a dash. Just leave it out.

If a MP4 file has incorrect embedded metadata it can throw off Plex matching. Either correct the metadata or tell Plex to ignore it. Edit the Library → Advanced → deselect Prefer Local Metadata.
-
Plex Dance each movie after renaming and reorganizing.
This matches immediately on my server:
