I guess there us no way to add this:
https://thetvdb.com/movies/alike
and this:
https://thetvdb.com/movies/paperman
in the same library as a TV series (like Wallace and Gromit)?
If I structure the folders like a TV series and make these episodes specials (IE, S00E01), Plex still can’t figure it out.
Well… kinda.
Make an identically named Collection in their respective library - when viewing the Collection in one library the other item will appear at the bottom:
That’s an image I made for a bug report, but it shows the TV Shows in a Science Fiction Collection - at the bottom of huge Collection of Science Fiction Movies.
That’s one way.
Another way is to rename and structure “Alike” as a Special Episode in your 'Paperman" Series.
Or - and this is the one:
Put both those single episode TV Shows into a Movie library and name 'em right:
Problem solved.
Note:
“Alike” doesn’t have a poster at TMDB.
Grab the Poster from TVDB and drop it in the Edit window provided - another problem solved.
Although the last one won’t then show the TV series of Wallace and Gromit if I make it a “Movie” library.
How many Wallace and Gromit episodes do you have?
Make 'em all Movies and put 'em all in a Collection:
https://www.themoviedb.org/search?query=wallace%20and%20gromit&language=en-US
This is basically your only option.
Plex don’t deal with Movies listed at TVDB… Period.
You could ‘Create’ a Fake TV Show:
Name and structure all these things as episodes in a TV Show - Fix Match/Search Options/Personal Media - then Hand Edit them all to create something wonderful.
The ‘work around’ you seek is in here - somewhere.
