With the update to the scanner, now they are scanner properly as three different movies. There was problem with movies such as Initial D Legend where it was technically three movies but grouped into one and because of that, the movie scanner would show two of the movies as duplicates of the third movie.

Now, an option has been added to the metadata agent called Single Season Ordering which, instead of dividing the episodes into different seasons, puts all the normal episodes into a Season 1, specials into Season 0, openings/endings into Season -1, and trailers into Season -2. In the previous release, the episodes of every show would be divided into seasons according to the TvDB data. Users who prefer to set up their folder structure in this manner should give Plex a couple more minutes for scanning. However, with this fix scanning speed does take a hit as it breaks the Partial Scanning feature of Plex and it ends up scanning the whole parent folder again. It was fixed by taking inspiration from the Absolute Series Scanner. It was tested with various folder structures and series to make sure there were no outlier cases.

Now you can store it however you want, and it will work properly. For example, if you have Naruto and Naruto Shippuden in a folder called Naruto, Plex would only consider it as one series named Naruto. Plex has a problem with series being stored in subdirectories as it detects everything as a single series. This release also adds a few user requested features such as single season ordering which you can read about below.įor a complete list of changes, check out the Changelog. It has been a whole year since the last release! The focus of this release fixes an issue with subdirectories, now you can store your anime in whatever way you want without having to put up with Plex and its non-anime friendly folder structure.
