Server Version#: 1.16.3.1402 Player Version#: 1.16.3.1402 I’m finding a weird issue with metadata. no matter what TV show I add, it keeps on treating it as a cartoon. Example; I’ve added Game of Thrones and it has showed posters for American Dad. I thought it’s one add instance, so added another TV show. Spartacus this time and it has matched it with Pokeman. I mean WTF is going on behind the scene? I don’t think fix match option exists in this new Plex version. any help would be appreciated. Here comes some images… ![1](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/3X/7/1/7137028af4c4aeb92a5d95cba36e46fbd938d12c.png) ![1](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/3X/6/1/617a422314bbaa894c4f703ff0e35d1dec0d4e57.png) ---

How are your files organized and named? At which folder level did you point your library? Are you downloading/ripping into the same folder, to which you have pointed Plex? ---

I’ve just edited the original post and shared a screenshot which shows file organization and naming. these are named by Sonarr, so I think that’s not an issue. Folder level is drive/seriesname/season/… They’ve downloading to a different folder but then Sonarr moves/link them. ---

First of all, I do recommend, that you do NOT put your media folders directly at the root of a drive, but instead one directory below, like `d:\tv-shows\spartacus\Season 01\mymedia.mkv` Then point your library to `d:\tv-shows` Secondly, it’s `Season 01` and not `Season 1` ---

the show is spartacus, not spartacus blood and sand and the prequal season is ‘specials’ - /data/media/TV/Spartacus (2010)/Specials/Spartacus - s00e01 - Past Transgressions - x264 AC3.mkv ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/3X/d/3/d334a230dcdd46c50fa6e8524632d8bcd09d9bc4.jpeg) ---

Season 1 is created by Sonarr. The only change that I’ve made just now is, created a folder inside root just like you’ve suggested above and voila it’s fixed! Thank you for that 😃 ![1](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/3X/6/3/638d80e6d418a2b0582418f19e520a102932dd35.png) ---

Don’t know Sonar, but `Season 1` **IS WRONG** , and will cause problems sooner or later Ref: [https://support.plex.tv/articles/naming-and-organizing-your-tv-show-files/](https://support.plex.tv/articles/naming-and-organizing-your-tv-show-files/) ---

All right. thank you for the heads up. I’ll look into Sonarr naming settings. 😉 ---
