Tosh.0 Not Importing

I am trying to import some Tosh.0 episodes into Plex, but cannot seem to get it working. I have quite a few other shows already on the server with no issues, so I am thinking it is a naming issue because of the period in the title. I have tried naming the folder “Tosh.0” “Tosh.O” “Tosh” “Tosh .O” “Tosh .0” “Tosh 0” and “Tosh Point 0”. None of these worked.

In the meantime I have added some more episodes of a different show and they showed up just fine.

Any ideas here?

Server Version#: 1.40.4.8679
Player Version#: 4.76.1

Just made a test using

/Testseries
   /Tosh.0
      /Season 08
         Tosh.0 - S08E17 - Three Cheese.mp4

and got instant metadata.

Plex Dance the show after renaming.

\TV Shows  <-- TV Library points here.  Name does not matter.
..\Tosh.0 (2009) <-- show_name (year)
....\Season 01  <-- "Season" in English
......\Tosh.0 (2009) s01e01.ext <-- ext = mkv/mp4/etc
....\Season 02
......\Tosh.0 (2009) s02e01.ext <-- sXXeYY important.

THANK YOU!

It was the naming of the shows. They were named Tosh.0 - [01x01] - Afro Ninja and as soon as I changed it to s01e01 they started showing up. I knew it was going to be something easy I missed.

A program called FileBot is infinitely valuable for renaming several files in a way that Plex will understand them. :slight_smile:

Or TVRename, Tiny Media Manager, tvmv, etc.

I think anything in brackets is ignored, right? Isn’t that the sanctioned way to put notes in a filename?
