Movie extras not showing organized in subdiretories

Plex Media Server Metadata & Adding Files
1

Server Version#: Version 1.32.6.7557
Player Version#: Web Version 4.108.0

I can’t seem to get my Movie extras to show in the Player. I copied and pasted the ‘extras’ directory names out of your docs. The movies scan and show, but no extras. Tried refreshing the metadata and changing the directory names. I usually use the file notations, but thought I’d try the directory method this time, but I can’t get it to work.

Any help is appreciated. :slight_smile:
Thanks

Here’s my file structure:
jgordon@xxxxx:/xxxx/xxxxx/Movies/Deadpool 2 (2018)$ ls -R
.:
.
Deadpool 2 (2018)/
‘Deadpool 2 (2018) {edition-SuperDuper Cut}.mp4’
‘Deadpool 2 (2018) {edition-Theatrical Release}.mp4’

‘./Behind The Scenes’:
‘Celine Dion Music Video Behind the scenes.mp4’

Local extras cannot be shared between different editions.
Give each edition its own, dedicated folder and its own dedicated extras.

3

You have to place the editions in separate folders.

If you want the extras to appear for both editions, you will have to place them in both folders.

Plex Docs → Your Media → Local Files for Movie Trailers and Extras

In the Adding Local Trailers and Extras section:

Tip! : If you’re making use of multiple editions for movies, you need to make sure that each edition is stored in its own named movie directory. The local trailers and extras can then be placed inside that specific edition folder, like normal.

Super cool. Didn’t notice that wrinkle.

Thanks very much!
