Hi, any Plex users here?

I'm trying to add some 'Tunes to my Plex. Originally I had Whizzard of Ow (Bonus feature for Back in Action) titled as a short film, which did match, but I don't want my server overrun with them as I backup more DVDs. Maybe Whizzard of Ow counts as a short because it's so far out of the classic era, but then Baseball Bugs and 8 Ball Bunny would show up as TV episodes, and that's not the case. I also have Horton Hatches the Egg as a film in my Dr. Seuss films folder.

It's not that I only have Merrie Melodies that I'm trying to match to Looney Tunes either. Baseball Bugs is a Tune and 8 Ball Bunny is a Melody (why did 2 of my first 3 have to have such similar titles?) and I'd think the two series are synonymous by now by anyone and everyone's standards.

I tried titling them to organize by date, but they're not importing titles. I've tried TVDB's "season" order, but that's not working either. Renamed folder with TVDB title number (Looney Tunes (1929) {tvdb-72514}) and while it now matches to the series, episodes still aren't matching. I tried "Looney Tunes - S19XXEXX - Title.mkv" which also doesn't work. I also don't want to use TVDB's "DVD order" as I can't figure out what DVD set that is and I'd like to see the series evolve over time rather than sorted by character as I already can with the Golden Collection and so many others.

I have gripes with CEV. (first off why are we calling it CEV instead of CER?) And yes, 343/HS has messed up more than a few times. And Halo is primarily a book series that occasionally has tie-in games now. But it feels like this fandom enjoys hating whatever the 2 newest games are more than actually playing the old games.

When I got into Halo in early-mid 2011 (with Fall of Reach, CE, and 2) Reach and ODST were supposedly the worst thing that ever happened to the series, and people were starting to come around on Wars at least for the cutscenes and atmosphere. And it's continued with whatever the 2 newest games are. Wars 2 was an exception! I'll say that.

Now CEV is out, and I'm starting to see people nostalgic for Halo 5. SPV3 was acclaimed by a niche group, but it seems like those same people hate CEV for changing a lot of the same things, but to a much lesser degree! Pete Stacker and Dave Scully being retired is disappointing, but that's not on 343 or the new actors ffs. And the Williams hate feels so forced. If anything, criticize her writing for resolving her entire character arc in two thirds of a level, rather than hating her for starting off with a character flaw that isn't even a flaw, just an opinion and not bowing down to John in wonder before most of the UNSC knew who he was. And Cortana not being hot enough? please. Have you seen her original haircut (that I wish they stuck with)?

Again, I know 343/HS has bungled nearly every launch in some way, but credit where credit's due. H2A, HW2, CEV, and the Fall of Reach movie (which was disappointing and skipped the part where Reach falls 🙄) only exist because of fan demand. Countless weapons and armor sets added to 5, and Infinite (and Mark V and ODST being added to 4, albeit for $10). Cancelling Spartan Ops. Going back to the old art style and basically skipping over the evil Cortana arc in Infinite. To name a few off the top of my head.

The media landscape has drastically changed in the last quarter-century. Yes, the overreliance on remakes for one. But I mean, the Halo trilogy was THEE console multiplayer game for a solid 7-10 years, due in large part to console multiplayer being a new thing! I know y'all will come for my head for this, but... Halo is never again going to be what it was at those LAN parties with pizza and mountain dew. That's not to say nobody should ever try that again! Absolutely go for an old school LAN party. That would be awesome. Invite me. But I mean the zeitgeist that facilitated that is just... over, and any Halo game trying to stray from the trilogy will be different, and anything that copies it will seem somewhat pointless (CEV, and both the Prometheans and Xalanyn being called "worse than the Flood")

Feedback is important. but it's honestly exhausting, being surrounded by so much hate. I think if we all just played the games we like, we'd be a lot happier.

P.S. Saying Microsoft should give it back to Bungie is pretty out of touch, when Sony owns Bungie, Bungie has a skeleton crew left, how badly they bungled so much of Destiny (to the point that there is currently nothing left of the original Destiny 2 in Destiny 2) and they didn't even want to make ODST and Reach.

I've completed my dexes for almost every Switch game and DLC, I just need Aromatisse for my shiny keldeo. I have a Spritzee ready to go, or can do Swirlix, or pretty much anything else, I just need a spritzee or Aromatisse caught or hatched in Sw/Sh while I have a Nintendo Online trial active until Saturday.

I've tried trading through Home, and countless times I've been given ones caught in other games. In desperation, I even traded several legendaries away.

Please. Just need one from Sw/Sh.

People are "voting with their wallets." idk if Lego tracks actual sales numbers of each fig, but they have to be hearing about Tahu being sold out, and will be much more likely to make the rest of the team!

Is the number to leave a voice message a patron/First-only thing? I can't find it posted anywhere. Would attaching an audio file to an email to "shouts" be permissible?
