I did so, and you didn’t mention this.
Plus, I cannot know what you think is a correct naming schema.
I cannot count the times when a user has stated that he uses correct namings which then later were revealed as actually not correct.
That’s why I am always asking.
Let’s start at the beginning:
Are your files in mp4/m4v containers?
Then they might contain embedded meta tags, which can interfere with the matching process.
This configuration change will make embedded meta tags less important for Plex:
Go to
- Settings - Server - Agents - Shows - TheTVDB
In there, grab the line ‘Local Media Assets’ with your mouse and drag it downwards, so it ends up being at the bottom of the stack of active agents.
Repeat the same under
- Settings - Server - Agents - Shows - TheMovieDatabase
- Settings - Server - Agents - Movies - Plex Movie
- Settings - Server - Agents - Movies - TheMovieDatabase
I recommend you to use a (year) in the folder name of the “original show” as well. In this case 1940.
If you already tried several naming schemas previously, the mismatch might be “too ingrained” in the Plex database already.
To clear that up, perform the Plex Dance with all Tom & Jerry material.
Only add back one series at a time. Not all at once.
