Plex identifying different shows as the same

Edit: We were updating at the same time…

The TVDB/TMDB IDs really help with reboots, spinoffs, etc. You can also add IMDB/TMDB IDs for movie files. The docs have the details. Be sure and use curly brackets, {…}.


Name and organize the shows as shown in the thread I linked.

Add the TVDB/TMDB ID to the folder name for each show, then Plex Dance both shows, returning them to the Plex library one at a time.

See Plex DocumentationYour MediaNaming & Organizing Your TV Show Files for additional details.
