Yes, after the change version, now my disks are mounted under /media, but one point, if i put a new movie, i don’t have problems, only under TV Shows
And now remember (just in case) so many days ago, my server (CineMAC) was lost, then i made a new server (PMS), the user’s dont lost, only the PMS, one week after, PMS is gone and CineMAC return, waf… very weird but that’s how it was, please check my log please
On Ubutnu, if PMS does not run as your username, and the automounter is used (no /etc/fstab entry), problems occur. The root cause of this is Gnome Nautilus.
Please go back to Settings - Server - General and turn VERBOSE logging back OFF.
It is off by default.
VERBOSE only makes my job tougher. It also limits the logs to 2 minutes of elapsed time.
I cannot see what’s happening.
With them back on DEBUG only, Please recreate again and then gather a fresh set.
Hi again ChuckPA
i was made some actions for the debug, i send a log and DB file
best regards and thanks for your attention

Macx99,
Thank you for the logs. I did not need the database so removed it.
I am finding damaged metadata files in your library. One example is:

I would like your next step to be Refresh all Metadata for the existing “TV Shows” library section.
As for your mount point under /media, every time this problem occurs it resolves as soon as the mounts are moved away from /media to something else. As example /plexmedia, /disks, etc. Any directory which isn’t reserved by Nautilus or the OS works…
The conflict with Nautilus is the root case and has been this way since Gnome 3.0
Hi Chuck, so many few minutes ago i was made a refresh and scan but the situation is the same
i Sentd the last logPlex Media (3.4 MB)
i have 20 files in this directory, but Plex only see the first 18, don’t update the last 2 files
Thanks again
Would you mind taking screenshot(s) of the directories (folders) you include in the library section?
I have a suspicion I’d like to verify. I think you have overlap or are one level too deep somewhere. It’ll confuse PMS.
I’m sorry, I wasn’t clear enough. My apologies:
This folder list.
As for the directory listing, your naming isn’t correct.
Young Sheldon.S02E01.any title here
The real title does not have a . in it.

Thanks. That looks good. I trust the rest of the directories are all unique and none are subordinate to a previous one.
I do think we’ve found your matching problem in the names and structure itself.
You also show
Young Sheldon S02 This is not correct.
Young Sheldon/
Season 02/
Young Sheldon.S02E01.any title here.ext
This type work is best done with a renaming tool. Two most common here are FileBot and TheRenamer.
I use FileBot and never have matching problems.
your reasoning is correct, but the question is because if you see 18 files well and the last 2 do not, in the previous image, (cli command), the previous files have an * at end of the name, the last 2 files don’t have this asterisk, this mean something?
Please look at your naming AGAIN:
/media/plex/20181/cinemac2017/series favoritas/
Your structure is not correct. The structure from here and all series should be
Name/
Season ss/
Name.SxxExx.title
Name - SxxExx - title (both these formats are valid)
Before making any further changes:
- Scan files
- Settings - Server - Troubleshooting - Download Logs
- Attach that ZIP file
I will check one more time for file permission errors.
Sorry Chuck im out of office, i will send the files in a few hours, an apology for it
Sorry to interrupt, but the steps mentioned above won’t help. Your library has already scanned your Young Sheldon files so it won’t do anything else with them so any issues won’t be logged. You need to re-add that show to your library so the logs can capture what happens with each file. Please perform the steps from Plex incorrectly identifying TV episodes and provide a new PMS log afterwards.
Sorry team, i am very grateful for your help but i feel there are a bug in PMS. i was made the Plex dance and now, PMS change the name, from Young Sheldon to The Ellen degeneris and too dont see in Season 2 the chapters 19 and 20
Plex Media (3.5 MB)
Did you rename it in place or “Plex Dance” it?
Renaming in place does nothing because PMS keeps the file’s fingerprint (Checksum).
To make it start the process completely over:
- Move media files to an unmonitored directory
- Scan files
- Empty Trash
- Clean bundles
- Move Media back
- Scan again if not auto scanned.
It’s not Plex, nobody else has this problem, sorry. 99.99% of this type problem is rooted in Naming, Structure, and incorrect media curation procedure.
Hi Chuck, i was made the Plex dance. i move the files to other directory, then delete the original directory, next, IN PMS, delete Young Sheldon structure, refresh all metadata in TV Shows, the next step was copy again the sheldon directory to the original structure, and sorprise, now Sheldon is Ellen Deg… and the worst, the chapters 19 and 20 in second season are ghost again … oops, is an rare case, but don’t worry, i don’t have problem with the names, the only situation are the ghost… let me try again and i will share the results, thanks again
