hello again friends!:

i recently created a new movie library with new plex movie agent.
…my movies are named: Avatar (2009) (1920x1080 - x264 - DTS 5.1).mkv

it’s correct and plex will read this tag ? :

  • Avatar (2009) (1920x1080 - x264 - DTS 5.1) {id 19995}.mkv

note the { }

aiming to 100% matching because my movies are first named with filebot

thxsss

Make that
Avatar (2009) - [1920x1080 - x264 - DTS 5.1] {tmdb-19995}.mkv
Angular brackets make the scanner ignore the stuff inside (only the first pair).
If you’re providing a movie ID number, you must make it clear whether it is an ID from IMDb or TMDB.

it’s working this trick with plex tv series agent too ?

If you’re using the new agent, yes.
Only that the metadata sources for tv shows are TheTVDB and TMDB, but no IMDb.
And you are adding the ID to the show folder name.
