I am having issues with my Audials files being recognized in Plex, I am not sure if it something on the Plex side, or Audials side of things and how Audials names the files.

Has anyone else had this issue?

  Audials default name format is not a format Plex likes.
  
  Plex format Movie Format = Title (Year) 
  Plex format tv show format = Title (Year) - S00E00 - Episode Title

  HINT 1 = for above there is times rules, + adds to wrong section (Especially when you only type one letter). Type something random that at least a couple letters and erase it. That should make + add to the end
  HINT 2 =

  HINT 3 = Audials own guide https://support.audials.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002256599-Choosing-folders-and-filenames?lang=en
  
  
  I also use Filebot (One time payment software = $48) for naming anything on Plex since it auto renames and moves TV shows and Movies in the right folder.

  I faced a similar problem. Ensure Audials files follow Plex compatible naming conventions and consider refreshing your Plex library after any changes.
