Where is the folder location for the Scanner?

  1. Look up your show on TheTVDB
  2. Take the title as it is used on TheTVDB. If there is something in parentheses, take that too. If the title contains invalid characters (depends on your file system), like § : % *, simply leave them out.
  3. Check the naming and the folder structure of your show. Name the top folder of the show exactly after the title on TheTVDB. No abbreviations. No additional subfolders. No aliases.
  4. Name the episode files according to the above linked naming guide. Use the same title as for the top folder. Show's Title - s01e01 - additional info.ext (‘- additional info’ can be left out)
  5. After you corrected the naming and folder structure, perform the Plex Dance with all files for this show.

Berserk - The Golden Age is not a separate show. These episodes are merely treated as ‘Special’ episodes for ‘Berserk’: 剣風伝奇ベルセルク - TheTVDB.com

Your file naming above is still not right. Installing Filebot is not enough, you must also tell it to use the plex naming schema and not that from Kodi https://forums.plex.tv/discussion/191687/plex-naming-schemes-for-filebot

Thanks a lot for the information!
I will try to use the Plex naming scheme for shows that fail to be recognized correctly (1 thus far).
I will then perform the “Plex Dance” :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m not sure why/how TheTVDB treats Berserk Golden Age as specials, since Golden Age is a summary in 3 episodes of the entire original anime (1997), but redrawn from scratch in 2012 to match the new 2016 show.
Kinda like a remastered prequel to Berserk 2016.
