So i fixed my previous issue with plex just not working sometimes by switching the server to my pc but now i have another problem.  I just downloaded a tv show and only the last 5 episodes are showing up in plex.  They are all in the same folder and named by each episode number.  When i add tv shows in the past to plex they worked just fine but with this one in particular i cant get it to work.  any ideas?

Could do with a few things:

 

What file format is it? Plex seems to be picky with what it will accept.

 

Have you labeled it correctly?

 

Have you tried to update your library and refresh it a few times?

They are mkv files just like everything I have for the server.  I haven't changed the name of the files.  They are labeled as the name of the show and the episode number.  What should I change it to?  Also yes I have tried to refresh it multiple times

The way I've organized mine has always worked, I do:

 

TV > Show Name > Season > Number the episodes

 

So if I was labeling something like "Spongebob Season 2 Episode 6" it would look like:

 

TV > Spongebob Squarepants > Season 2 > 6
