hi I have plex 1.28 in my qnap In qts 5.0, I had organized a series and left a season separate from the rest and now I tried to include it along with the other seasons but it doesn’t appear together with the others I tried to exclude the series from the collection to to be able to update and solve the problem but it didn’t work then I tried to do the [plex dance](https://forums.plex.tv/t/the-plex-dance/197064) but I couldn’t update but there was an error I think can someone give me a tip?

I left it separate because when I was informed I thought it was a different series with the same characters

this is the way I added the season in the case to 05  
example:

\< series\>  
…\<season 01\>  
… \<season 02\>  
… \<season 03\>  
…\<season 04\>  
…\<season 05\>  
…\< specials \>  
\< series\>

Try and name the show folder as:

`Ikkitousen (2003) {tmdb-37584}`

And I do assume, the your Show Library is pointing towards `Animes` ?

And lastly, please don’t use the build in `Multimedia share!`

Use an SSH connection, but strongly recommend simply moving your medias away to a regular share
