Plex Web showing episodes with "?" in filename as Unavailable

Server Version#: 1.41.8.9834
Player Version#: Web 4.147.1

I recently noticed that Plex Web is now flagging all my TV episodes that have a “?” in the filename as “Unavailable”. It also looks to affect full TV Series names with “?” in the folder structure as well. These files are also showing as “Trash =True” when using advanced filters, but they all play fine in the New Experience iOS apps.

For example, here is the data for an episode of Star Trek Discovery titled " Will You Take My Hand?".

Here is an example of a tv series, Whose Line Is It Anyway? in Plex and in the Finder:



The files are clearly there and also play fine on the new mobile experience.

Anyone else seeing issues like this?

The ? is not typically a legal character on MacOS. Best not to use them.
