Newbie question, I’m sure. I’ve set up and installed PMS on a Synology NAS, and I have various clients running on PS4, Samsung TVs, AppleTVs, iOS devices, etc. This is a pretty sweet software suite, I must say. The thing that’s driving me crazy is that when I launch a client app and go to “movies” the resulting browse results are littered with trailers, extras, etc. All I want to see if my main movies. I’ve found several settings that sound like they should do the trick, but nothing has worked. I’ve searched for the answers and I’m simply not finding the “off” button for these trailers and extras. Any help would be appreciated.
Automatic trailers and extras are not ‘mixed in’, so what you are seeing must be some files on your disks which are improperly named. Therefore Plex cannot distinguish whether theses are trailers, samples or extras.

Bingo. Thank you. It was a whole bunch of iTunes Extras that was creating the mess.
