Multi episode file support

I am sure this has been asked but I am going to ask it again. It would really be nice to be able to have support for multi episode files. I am not talking about Plex chopping the episodes automatically but more about the way they are listed on the gui. An example, my daughters cartoons are generally 2 “episodes” per block (so are many cartoons) but if named Cartoon - 1x01 & 1x02 - Show 1 & Show 2 Plex lists it simply as Episode 1 - Show 1. The next file will naturally start with episode 3 so Plex lists it as such but it makes it appear as if I am missing Episode 2. If the episode list could have the option (or even allow me to manually rename the episode number) to show it as Episode 1 & 2 it would be nicer.

Thank you.

Are you referring to multi-episode files (1 file with 2 episodes each)?
The media preparation support page describes how to achieve for both episodes to show. From what I understand it’s not possible to show them as a single item in your library… instead you’ll have 1 item per episode, both starting the same video.
