It’s good to hear it worked on a previous install named that way.
I personally made all filenames exactly like the Movie naming scheme I linked.
I was afraid the agent would get confused, but I’m new 
You mentioned you used this group of files on FreeNAS-9.3 for years. Right on, may I ask what exactly you tried to restore to the new NAS? Was it only the media (mkv files for example), or did you copy entire Library folders and the like which might have Metadata hidden in them?
FreeNAS is beyond my technical skill. Hopefully it’s just a matter of library migration or agent not being available in the new PMS.
