With the new Plex Movie Agent, which I am forced to use, many movie collections are not added by Plex
Is there any way, besides manually, to make them appear? Here are some examples of collections not added:
Ace Ventura Collection
Airport Collection
…
Zulu Collection

From a database of 700 movies (all belonging to collections), not one collection was detected by the new Plex Movie agent.

What’s the configuration for automatic collections in your respective library (specifically the minimum threshold)?
Can you double-check if the movies in question have their collection tag locked?

3

The Minimum automatic Collection Size is disabled for all my libraries.
How can I check if a movie has the collection tag locked?

Then that’s probably your issue.
Set this to the number of items you want to be in your library for Plex to automatically create a collection, e.g. 1 if you already want to create a collection if you have one of its items; 2/3/… if you only want Plex to create collections once you have at least so many items)

It does not seem to be the issue as I changed in this particular library the settubg to 1 and it still does not detect any collection.

There’s a lock icon next to each field when editing a movie item (see „Locking and Unlocking“)

Make sure to refresh the metadata of the movie in question after changing this value (or the metadata of the entire library).

Problem solved.
Changed setting to 1, confirmed collection tag was not locked, refreshed metadata and collections started to be detected.
