i want to be able to listen to my music by genres, like 80s 90s or trance. my mp3s are tagged as such. but plex doesnt show all of them... any idea why

Great explanation of fixing metadata. I have an unrelated question regarding Libraries. Are the names on the left column names of folders or names of libraries. Thanks.

My biggest issue with Plex is that they have all these settings but don't really provide a simple and efficient way of providing everyone what the best optimal settings are...IE What should the Database Cache Size (MB) size be in the Library settings? default is 40mb....

Thanks for the tips, this is one of the complaints I have about Plex, it gets it wrong way too often. This should definitely help.

I use filebot its a few pounds for a year and is fantastic. So I rip in make mkv the drag the file to file bot then click to rename then send to plex folder. Fantastic fod tv series.

Do you keep all the movie files together in one directory? Seriously?? You're supposed to have each movie in a separate folder, with the folder name containing the name of the movie and the year in parenthesis.
