Tv episode part one and part two merged together

Hi,
Is it possible to split two episodes of a TV series that have been merged as one.
I understand why plex has done it, because the TVDB website marks that particular episode as one feature length episode, but the Blu-ray the series has been ripped from had the episode split as part one and part two.
Surely Plex has seen this problem before, there must be a solution that I am somehow not able to find?
What’s the point if I can never watch part two of an episode because Plex refuses to split them.
Please help someone

That means plex believes the second is a duplicate and not “part 1 & part 2”

You can use Mkvtoolnix to merge them into one single file. More info below.
EDIT: Link fixed. Thanks Otto!

Or name them so plex will know file 1 is part 1 and file 2 is part 2. More info below.
