Ok, I did get it to pull poster and metadata from my test server using the same naming and structure. It was user error on my part. It was an agent settings change that I forgot to change back from earlier testing. 8-}
…and that just illustrates how important it is to have all the jigsaw puzzle pieces in the right holes - without using a hammer - so when the puzzle is done you can see it’s Dogs Playing Poker.
(how many times did you Plex Dance® that test? I haven’t tried it yet, but I’ll be sure to check the naming and structuring if I do)
OK - I did. But checking everything twice to ward off The Plex Dance® and using my trusty test file:
F:\MCEB-TV\ <-----one of my TV Show Libraries
…Eerie, Indiana The Other Dimension
…Season 01
…Eerie, Indiana The Other Dimension - S01E01.mp4
Instantly resulted in:
Comfortably nestled in among all the other properly named and structured items in this TV Show Library:
It couldn’t grab a Season Poster - There isn’t one at TVDB - but in Plex style it placed the main poster in the Season Slot just like it always does in this case:
The other thing it didn’t grab was the episode image - because there isn’t one over there to grab, but the good part is I get to see the lovely Ingrid Bergman (the cleverly planned test file of hers always pays off) who shows up at times like this and that’s not such a bad thing…:
If you actually had an episode of ‘Eerie’ Plex would grab one from your file, just like it grabbed Ms. Bergman from mine.
