Setting For Movie Series Like We Have For TV

Not sure. I enabled collections on two of my libraries and it just worked.

Some things to try:

  1. Follow Plex naming convention: movie_name (year).ext (Ex: Mission Impossible (1996).mkv)

If you do rename the files, be sure and perform the Plex Dance.

  1. Check Agents

In Settings -> Agents -> Movies -> Plex Movie, make sure Plex Movie is checked.
Click on the gear icon for Plex Movie and make sure “Use collection info from The Movie Database” is checked.

In Settings -> Agents -> Movis -> The Movie Database, make sure The Movie Database is checked.
Click on the gear icon for TMDB, and make sure “Use collection info…” is checked.

  1. Rescan the library. Sometimes it takes a second scan to pick up the collections.

That’s everything I can think of for now.
