TV Shows and series extras

Plex Media Server
1

I don’t understand how extras work. I’m fairly new to Plex and have put my entire DVD collection on it. I’ve read the articles that show 2 ways of setting up the extras, I have chosen to put all my extras in one folder off of the main TV show folder. So, I have the Criminal Minds DVD set, created a folder called Criminal Minds, inside that folder I have 15 folders, one for each season, plus an extra folder called featurettes that have all the extras for each season. Plex is not seeing this. I even put the -featurettes switch after each name, example of one is called
Season1 Special Features-featurette.mp4
Am I suppose to put Extra_Directory_Type in there somewhere?
Thanks.

Thats what the featurettes folder is.

You need to make sure you are using the “Plex TV Series” Agent. Extras will not work with others.

TV extras will show up on the show level not each season. Specific Episode extras should be put in with the episode files to show on the episode details page

I like how you excluded the later seasons of GoT from the screenshot as if they never happened.

I feel your pain!

Thanks, I’ll give that a try. First thing I have to do is update my Plex server, I’m running an older version.
