Plex plays wrong movie

Server Version#: 1.41.6.9685
Player Version#: 4.145.1

Dear Community,
I just installed plex server on Debian 12.9 and added my media via nfs share from my NAS.
Now I have the strange phenomenon, that when I click to play a movie, a complete different movie starts playing. Naming is correct, and also the media infoemation is correct. The movie is linked correctly to the file, but still it plays a different movie.
Please I need help here. I already tried a complete new installation, but it is still the same.
It happens only for movies and not for TV-Shows.
Any help is very appreciated.
Many thanks in advance for for time and support.

Kind regards,
Jokie

If it’s linked to the right named movie file then the NAS is sending the wrong data.

This means the NAS’ filesystem got damaged somehow (abrupt power failure?).
I would have it check the file system(s) and RAID integrity

After that, EDIT the folders list for each library section. CONFIRM they are correct. FORCE a Scan Files & Refresh All Metadata

Do you have the client set to automatically play a movie trailer before movies?

Thanks for the hint. In deed the trailer option was set. That’s odd. Why is it set as a default.
I unset it and now it works as it should.
