I am trying to add a specific show, in a specific way, that aligns with IMDB. However, Plex will not recognize or match it.
I have Star Blazers, which matches just fine. This is the English dub of Space Battleship Yamato. I also have Space Battleship Yamato I-III, which is the original Japanese language series. The three Space Battleship Yamato series are tt0140644, tt0140645, and tt0140646 in IMDB. Plex matches series I just fine, but refuses to match II and III no matter how many ways I try.
Naming convention:
[Drive letter]:/TV Shows/Space Battleship Yamato {imdb-tt0140644}/Season 01/Space Battleship Yamato - S01E01 - SOS Earth!! Awaken, Space Battleship Yamato [file info].mkv
[Drive letter]:/TV Shows/Space Battleship Yamato II {imdb-tt0140645}/Season 01/Space Battleship Yamato II - S01E01 - [file info].mkv
[Drive letter]:/TV Shows/Space Battleship Yamato III {imdb-tt0140646}/Season 01/Space Battleship Yamato III - S01E01 - [file info].mkv
Supposedly Plex’s new matching system uses TMDB, TVDB, and IMDB. And supposedly, putting IMDB, TVDB, or TMDB tags in the folder/file name will “make sure” Plex matches the correct title.
Nonetheless, Plex is refusing to match Series II or III of SBY. This is incredibly frustrating. I could add series 2 and 3 as season 2 and 3 of SBY I, but that’s not accurate and it wouldn’t pull any episode data because IMDB shows the series as a single season (because it was).
I know Plex has issues with Anime, but I feel like if the series exists in IMDB, and my naming convention matches IMDB, there should be no issues getting Plex to match said show.
