TV show shows up as movie, does not get picked up in TV folder

Server Version#: 1.29.1.6316
Player Version#: 4.87.2

Hi I have media files for a TV show in episode format, but my TV show library does not pick them up. When added to movie library, they are. How can I fix this please?

A specific example might work. Things in a s01e01 format usually don’t show up in a movie library.

Chances are if it’s showing up in a movie library the major players like TVDB and TMDB have deemed it a movie and not a TV show

TMDB: 34599 - listed as a tv show
TVDB: 352582 - listed as a tv show.

Very confused.

Plex doesn’t like “Episode”

All TV show titles have to be in a “S01E01” format

Also in the show folder you should put the 2003 in parenthesis (2003)

This is pretty easy to use. You can rename entire shows to match what I just showed you very easily instead of typing everything out
Rename My TV Series 2

Ah that works now thank you
