Millennium bug: the server will not recognize episode 1000 and above

Server Version#: 1.24.5.5173

Hello, I am trying to make the server recognize a series that just reached 1000 episodes.
As this series is not dividable by seasons, I turned on the option Episode Ordering: Absolute Numbering which was working perfectly until episode 999.
I believe I am facing the Millenium Bug, now: I am quite sure the server was coded to recognize episodes up to three digits and will never scan for four digits or above.
From episode 1000 and forward I am not able to make Plex recognize the new episodes. They will just be ignored while scanning the folder and not appear in the library at all.
Do you have any solution for this?

Looks to be the same as this thread → Plex wont recognize episode 1000 (or 1000+) of One Piece - #30 by ChuckPa. Guess you will need to wait for a fix.
