I request Plex to formally support organization of movies that have multiple cuts / release versions, such as:
Theatrical Release
Director’s Cut
Extended Release
Uncut / NC-17 version
Edited for Television
Widescreen

The version can be user defined, as part of the file name.

I request they all be organized under that same movie title and that each version in the library be listed independently, in a ‘Versions’ section before the ‘Extras’ section. So that the desired version be easily selected for play. A tag ending in ‘-version’ could be used to identify alternate versions of the movie. The description of the version can be taken from the file name. e.g.

Movie Title (year) - {Version Description} - comments -version.mkv

A movie folder could contain just all ‘-version’ files (as well as Extras) or if an untagged movie file exists, it will be the primary version. {Version Description} in the file name will still identify which version the primary is.

Individual subtitles can be associated with each version. e.g.

Movie Title (year) - {Version Description} - comments -version.en.srt
