Multi part movies shown 3 times in Movie view - lococola - 2022-02-24

I have several movies that have 2 parts, mostly old movies. For instance, Dr. Mabuse The Gambler, or Children of Paradise, which are both movies that have originally released in two parts.

This movie shows up 3 times in my movie library; the 2 parts individually, and a combination of both parts rolled into one entry. I would prefer to see just the combined movies as one entry in the library, but it's also showing the individual parts.

What is causing this issue? I have the "Combine split video items" option disabled. But it didn't change anything after I enabled the item. It doesn't seem to do anything.

The naming convention I use:

dr.mabuse.the.gambler.1922.part.1.1080p.etc
dr.mabuse.the.gambler.1922.part.2.1080p.etc

Anyone run into this before?

I can't see how it appears three times. Maybe a Debug Log would help.

Change the name from part.1 to part1
