I am having problems identifying a tv show. Duck tales.

 

Emby identifies the show Ducktales 2017 perfectly, but the Ducktales from 1987 is not identified. So How can I do this manually?

 

The show folder is named: DuckTales/Season 01/'DuckTales (1987) - S01E01 - Treasure of the Golden Suns 1 Dont Give up the Ship [WEBDL-1080p][AAC 2.0][x264]-tokar86a.mkv' etc..

 

Is there no way I can manually go in to that folder and choose to identify it with a show?

I don't know how to remove a post but apparently I needed to rename the folder manually to include year.

A more reliable way to ensure proper matching is to include the TVDB ID in the folder name:

 

/Duck Tales [TVDBID=75931]/<season folders>/

 

I switched to using these with all media and now have 100% success identifying media first time.

Thank you, I changed naming convention in sonarr, so hopefully this will resolve any issues :)
