Server Version#: Windows Server 2016 Standard Plex Version #: 4.72.0 I’ve been running Plex Server for years. I always make sure my media is matched after I load it. If it doesn’t match automatically, I always manually match it. Suddenly yesterday, I had 100s of movies that were no longer matc…

Fighting with technology is like fighting with your spouse. Is the goal to know that you are “right” or to have movies match correctly? I often get stuck on this myself. “I’ve named my files this way for years so that can’t be the problem” is such a common comment that it’s boring. It’s really rar…

I just want to chime in that the same thing happened to me, and I do not use letter directories. I have “movie” directory on each of the drives I use to store my content. I, too, ensure everything in my library is matched - a lot of which I match manually (I have a lot of fan edits, 35mm preservati…

Thank you for adding this. I have a suspicion of what the problem may be. I need some Plex developers to weigh in on this. Plex used to match to TheMovideDB.org . Now, it matches to the Plex Movie database. I never do a meta data refresh on movies. I suspect Plex did it on it’s on a few days ag…

Is there a way to shout out to the Plex Developers to have them take a look at this? I matched everything again (for the 3rd time) on Sunday. today, I have about 16 or so that plex unmatched. Movies that I for sure had matched yesterday. This is getting dang annoying that I have to manually matc…

Can you provide a couple of screenshots? A screenshot of the “Add folders” tab when you edit your library . A screenshot of the full file path and file name for both “Undergods” and “USS Seaviper.” Given a library which matches Plex’s naming guidelines closely, you should rarely need to perform ma…

I’ve always kept up on my movie matches and cover art. Just after the last update when I hit “Scan library” all of my matches disappeared. I restored the database 3 times and it only lasts as long as I don’t scan the library. What’s up? [image]

[image] [image] [image] I know there was an earlier suggestion that I should put 'UnderGods (2020) in a folder called ‘UnderGods (2020)’ rather than ‘U’, otherwise, plex can’t find it. But that’s not the problem. #1) What does it matter if the folder name is ‘U’ or ‘UnderGods (2020)’ #2) I ha…

First of all, your media is located at the root of the drive, which is not recommended From your log: W:\Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows_ Part 2.mp4 I STRONGLY recommend, that you on your W drive create a directory named like movies and move your medias to that! Secondly, you are not follow…
