I used Tiny Media Manager to rename all episodes of Sailor Moon that Aired by DiC Entertainment but if I add them to my plex server the episodes don’t get named but only by Episode 1, Episode 2, etc, [plexnotnamingepisodes] [namingepisodes]

I’m not sure what that means. I’m not big into the anime stuff. What do you expect S01E01 to be named?

here is the list of episodes, Sailor Moon (TV Series 1992-1997) - Sailor Moon - (YTV (Canada)) — The Movie Database (TMDB) but Episode 2 is Talk Radio but if I let plex name them it would name Episode 2 as ViZ Media Episode as the one that was removed episode

Ok, I see what you mean. My Sailor Moon has that episode you don’t want. I tried to use a match hint with the series id on the page you posted but it is still matching to the wrong one. I’m not sure how to fix that.

Oh, just thought of something… You said you used TinyMediaManager to name the files. Did you also create .nfo files? Plex now has support for reading .nfo files. I haven’t played with it but it seems like you could solve your naming problem that way.

yes, but it still don’t use the .nfo files [namingepisodes]

can’t get it to work? and if I change the agent it will mess up my other tv shows info

I don’t think it works like that. If you don’t have nfo’s for your other shows, it should fall back to the normal plex tv agent.. Can you post a zip of your nfo files. I’ve never played around with the nfo agent. I’ll see if I can get something work in my testing library

I tried to just edit the show by trying to change the agent for the show but it didn’t work?

You probably need to read through this to see what you have to set up to get the nfo stuff working.
