Multi-series episode matching BUG

Plex Media Server
2

With this naming:

test_tv/
├── MGM Cartoons (1934)
│   └── Season 1940
│       └── MGM Cartoons (1934) - S1940E02.mkv
└── Tom and Jerry (1940)
    └── Season 1940
        └── Tom and Jerry (1940) - S1940E01.mkv

And each series configured to use TheTVDB (Aired) episode ordering, I get the correct metadata for each:

image1077×389 61.3 KB

image1077×389 68.7 KB

I’m curious to see a specific example of a failure scenario for you (naming and folder organization) and how you have your library and series episode ordering configured.

Also, stick with either or your (1) or (3) scenarios above; symbolic links are problematic in my experience and a .plexmatch would seem to be completely unnecessary here, assuming correct naming.
