Re: Please identify the following files:

I thought plex doesn't like mixing db sources. I'll try again in a couple of days, see if something gets fixed upstream. Presumably, Plex uses the same TheTVDB API, if you have selected TheTVDB as your preferred database, so if FileBot can't get the episode listing at this time, then there's a very...

Re: Please identify the following files:

Looks like the TheTVDB API does not work correctly. FileBot has no way of getting the episode listing if the API does not respond correctly.

Alright, so the screenshots above suggest that {media.FileSize}/{media.Title}/{audio.Format} work correctly for each file and yield the correct values. So that's the baseline.

Well, I cannot comment on your format code since you did not share your format code. That said, I'd start to debug the issue by using a very simple format, so that we can see the values we're working with. :arrow: e.g. use this format on your Onward (2020) sample file to see what MediaInfo Bindings ...

Unfortunately, no. You'll want to rely on your own custom format if you need fine-grained control over each bit and piece.
