Multiple copies of movies in my Plex Movie folder?

Post by Boss77 »

I used SabNZB/Sickbeard/Couchpotato to get backups of my movies on my Synology DS412+. However, when I added my video folder on the NAS to my Plex account, it for some reason imported multiple versions (sometimes up to 4) of certain movies. Any idea why this happened and/or how to fix it?

Thanks!

Quick check - are there multiple copies on your NAS? If not, check that Plex is actually matching correctly. I've had a few times where it got really wierd incorrect matches.

Then plex, by default, will show each copy as it's own entity. You can merge them in Plex tho, I'm not skilled enough to give you a walk thru.
