Well, my mind feels like I took the red pill and went into the matrix, and I don’t fully understand what I have seen. But here is some straight-forward reporting:
-
Following your suggestion, I removed a show (Yogi Bear 1958) from my main TV library folder. I did the Plex Dance with the folder elsewhere on my PC.
-
After a couple of library scans without Yogi Bear, I created a “TV_Tester” library and put the Yogi Bear folder in a newly-created “Testing_Library” folder.
-
I set up a new TV Show library in Plex, keeping my old libraries intact and untouched.
-
Upon creation of the library, Plex scanned the folder. It found the Yogi Bear show and it correctly scraped the episode data. But honestly, I cannot tell where it scraped the data from. It does not seem to be the TVDB, though, as far as I can tell. The episode screen shots do not correspond to the ones I see online at TVDB, and I still get “no matches found” when I manually try to fix the match with a TVDB scan.
Sorry I am not providing much clarity. Here are my latest server logs, perhaps you can shed some light.
