So when I try to update my libraries in Plex it finished instantly and says "Library scan complete" yet it doesn't add anything.

 

All folders are named correctly and stuff.

 

I already tried this:

 

  • Removing and adding catagories in Plex
  • Reinstalling

Try adding as "home videos" see if that finds them. 

 

Each type is looking for different types and naming of files - so make sure your TV and Movies are separate. And make sure the actual file naming is also correct.

So, you tried adding them as home videos category?

 

The reason I ask, is because that category is less strict on the type of content it displays.

It was working before but now it won't add ANYTHING

 

I tried removing the TV Shows folder which had stuff in it and tried refreshing it again.
