Wrong meta data from TMDB [Parks and Recreation]

TMDB only has 20 episodes for season 6 of Parks and Rec.

If you add an episode 21 Plex pulls meta data and tries to tie it to <Guid id="tmdb://974342"/>. I don’t think this should exist. Plex should only pull a tvdb id (tvdb had 22 episodes).

Why it matters? I’m trying to sync by library with Trakt and this is causing an error where episode 21 will not match.

If you haven’t already, try setting the episode ordering for the show to “TheTVDB (Aired)” and see if that helps. Edit the show (hover over the top-level show poster and select the pencil icon), select Advanced, and set the Episode ordering:

So the actual meta data like tile, cast, crew are correct. It’s not an issue with matching the file to the correct episode. The issue is that when plex does the match it’s also adding in meta data for an IMDB episode that no longer exists

<Guid id="tmdb://974342"/>

It shouldn’t have this TMDB id liked to it. It should return any TMDB ID/link for that episode.

@ChuckPa I think you helped with issues like this before. Is this something you can help with?

Episode 21 (and 22) are the two episodes which are listed as a single double-episode in TMDb (with id 974342). So including that reference seems perfectly fine, isn’t it?

The only “gap” I see is that the TMDb double-episodes only contain 1 ID of the 2 episodes listed on TheTVDb.
Personally I find it even more confusing because TheTVDb are listing both of the final episodes as s06e20 in their DVD order.

I didn’t realize plex had the same ID for episode 20 and 21. The issue I’m having is getting my plex library to sync with trakt because this episode was deleted from TMDB. I don’t know how to tell what trakt has as the TMDB id (i’m guessing it’s what ever TMDB had for episode 21 before it was deleted.) But I know if the id is deleted from plex it will fix the issue.

The episodes haven’t gone.
Season 6 has two double episodes (s06e01 and s06e20, as per TMDb). TheTVDb is listing them as separate two-part releases

TMDb TMDb Episode ID TheTVDb TheTVDb Episode ID
s06e01 (1st half) 397716 s06e01 4564853
s06e01 (2nd half) 397716 s06e02 4597306
s06e20 (1st half) 974342 s06e21 4809385
s06e20 (2nd half) 974342 s06e22 4809386
