Okay I actually think things are getting better. Looking in your latest Plex Media Server.1.log I am not seeing the errors from before. This log now looks good (at least to me)!

At this point could you **optimize database** and **clean bundles** via settings → manage \> troubleshooting.

Then, take 1 movie which is causing you a problem and do a full [plex dance](https://forums.plex.tv/t/the-plex-dance/197064) with it.

This helps when you want to “start from scratch” for particular item move all files for the media item out of the directory your Library is looking at, so Plex will not “see” it anymore scan the library library (to detect changes) empty trash clean bundles (in menu next to server name, when accessed under ‘More’) double check naming schema and move files back scan the library Support articl…

Once its matched again after the dance try and set a poster.

Fingers and toes crossed here 🙂
