Plex sees it as twice the length:

It appears as if its seeing it as two parts, but its not a two part file. and the file doesn’t exist twice either.

Ive done a full scan and even a partial scan but it still appears to be seeing this files like that

I found that this happens with you have more then one thing doing a scan at the same time. If you have something like Sonarr starting a scan do not have automatic scans turned on in Plex, they will both scan at the same time and add items twice.
