Plex Won't See TV Shows

Hi all,
I’ve been working to try to make Plex see my TV Shows for a little while to no avail. I believe I have the naming system correct, but nothing shows up in Plex. My server is running on FreeNAS 11.1. Here is an example path :Media/TV Shows/Documentary Now!/Season 01/Documentary Now! - S01E05 - A Town, a Gangster, a Festival.mkv. If anyone has any ideas or if I’m missing something obvious, let me know. Thanks.

Sorry for duplicate post, I’ll try to delete it.

Plex won’t see your files automatically…

  • check if the given folder (:Media/TV Shows) is included in your TV Shows Library in Plex
  • check permissions… the plex user needs to have read/write access to your media in order to recognize/see them

I can see the files in the Plex jail. I just tried chown -R plex:plex TV\ Shows with no results. I also tried setting the permissions to 777 but still nothing.
