Thanks chaps - I didn’t know about using the ID. I suspected it might work, but also wasn’t sure where to find the ID in theTVDB - any pointers?

Also, I’m on Mac, so… that folder works for me. :wink:

In that case:

A TV Show Library/
…Inside…/
…Season 01/
…Inside… - S01E01.xxx
or
…Inside… (2017)/
…Season 01/
…Inside… (2017) - S01E01.xxx

Should have worked, but you may have had to Plex Dance a couple of times to find the right combination:

The Plex Dance®:

  1. remove show from library
  2. update library
  3. empty trash
  4. clean bundles
    https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/200392106-Library-Actions <— update library, empty trash, clean bundles
  5. bring names and structures into compliance - or experiment until you strike oil.
  6. replace corrected show into library
  7. update library

Probably easier in the long run to just Fix Match with the TVDB ID, but there you go.
