Hi, sorry I didn’t get back sooner but living at the bottom of world and New Year a day earlier. My good friends from Plex and the forum have pointed you in the right direction.
As it has been pointed out, Structure and Naming has been your enemy. You maybe thinking why does it work sometimes or most of the time? The answer was once told to me, It works till it don’t.
As FordGuy61 has mentioned using TVDb and TMDb ID’s can be useful but not absolutely essential. Example, in my vast Library I have required it less than 20 times. Structure and Naming correctly is King.
Don’t let this daunting task discourage you, with a little organising you will be up and running. I will give a little advice on moving forward though. After Fixing all this up please become familiar with the Plex Dance and regularly Optimizing and Clean Bundles after large adding or removing files.
So happier times are ahead and I can say it is all worth while with these new features, Detect intros and credits, Cast Filmography Metadata which is my absolute favourite.
Cheers
