What isn’t working? It’s usually pretty flawless for me as long as it’s not anime and that’s what shoko is for

The file structure it requires. It's hard to pull off without breaking your torrents and after that it still will arbitrarily decide a file isn't the type for the library you're trying to import it into.

For a couple years I was getting around this by just keeping all my stuff in a single library and using the collections feature with all its options to make my own categories for standup, TV, and stolen YT videos. But today not even that lax of a setup could allow for some foreign films I wanted to add. It will just ignore movies or shows that it REALLY wants you to create an additional "other media" library for with no metadata

I've always used radarr and sonarr to handle renaming stuff, but it's still a pain. I've run into issues where Plex ignores the naming I've done in sonarr and just displays raw file names. It's a pain. Hopefully jellyfin will be a little easier when I eventually switch

Strange I've never had an issue since setting up sonarr and radar a few years ago, I followed the trash guides and just copy pasted the naming scheme

I suspect that my issue is that Plex metadata assigned those shows/episodes names before I renamed them, and refused to rename/refresh for whatever reason. Usually it works without a hitch
