Title for my movies clashes

Plex Media Server Metadata & Adding Files
1

Server Version#:
Player Version#:

Have problems labelling my own movies, no matter what I name them the plex app finds the closest match online and renames them. Tried simple labels like 1234 but there are even movies out there that match that.Is there a way to name a movies so it will not be altered.?

You must use a library of the type ‘Other Videos’ for your own, cusom-made videos.
If you use a library type of ‘Movies’, Plex will try and match the file to a known cinema movie.

Thanks , how, where, would I create that?

Just like creating any other library, but choose type “Other Videos.”

Login to your server via Plex Web. Mouse over “Libraries.” Click the + sign that appears to create a new library. Choose “Other Videos.”

Also, see Personal Media Files section of Your Media for additional information on naming & organizing personal videos.

Unless you have a WD MyCloud Home NAS, you do it like this:
