I have been adding local trailers and extras for some time now using the methods described in the support pages, and have always used the sub-folder method. It’s always worked flawlessly until the last few movies I have added, and suddenly Plex insists that I have added 2 movies, one identified correctly with the local trailer included in the extras section, and another movie called Trailers. I can sometimes correct it by clicking “Refresh” or “Analyze” but more often than not I have to remove the complete folder from the library, empty trash, etc and re-add the movie. So far it has always worked correctly the second time once I have performed the Plex Dance thing.
Folder Structure:
Movies - folder Plex is pointed to for movies
…Movie Name (year) – folder under Movies
…Movie Name (year).ext
…Movie Name (year).eng.srt
…Trailers – sub-folder under the Movie Name folder
…Descriptive name of Trailer.ext
The only thing I can think of that could be causing the problem is that I recently changed the settings to “Run a partial scan when changes are detected.” I can’t imagine that would trigger a “false” movie in a Trailers subfoder, but perhaps it does. I guess if it does, that would be a bug?
I’ve removed the partial scan setting to see if the problem continues, just curious if anyone else has experienced a similar glitch.
