# Recommended naming scheme
|
|
|
|
On the [Sonarr Discord](https://discord.gg/M6BvZn5){:target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"} people often ask, "What's the recommended/best way to
|
|
name your files?" First off, it's personal preference, but it's often recommended to add non-recoverable info.
|
|
|
|
Why?
|
|
|
|
If, for what ever reason, you ever need to do a re-install or re-import in
|
|
the Starr Apps or Plex/Emby/Jellyfin it's nice to have all that info in the filename so
|
|
it gets imported correctly and isn't incorrectly matched as HDTV or WEB-DL etc.

### Series Folder Format
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
{Series TitleYear}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
RESULT:
|
|
|
|
`The Series Title! (2010)`
|
|
|
|
#### Optional Series Folder Format for the Plex TV Series Scanner and Jellyfin/Emby
|
|
|
|
This naming scheme is made to be compatible with the new [Plex TV Series Scanner](https://forums.plex.tv/t/beta-new-plex-tv-series-scanner/696242){:target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"} that now support IMDB and TVDB IDs in file names.
|
|
|
|
For Plex:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
{Series TitleYear} [imdb-{ImdbId}]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
RESULT:
|
|
|
|
`The Series Title! (2010) [imdb-tt1520211]`
|
|
|
|
For Jellyfin/Emby:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
{Series TitleYear} [tvdbid-{TvdbId}]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
RESULT:
|
|
|
|
`The Series Title! (2010) [tvdbid-tt1520211]`
|
|
|
|
!!! tip
|
|
IMDb IDs are going to be very accurate and rarely change, TVDB/TMDB IDs, on the other hand, do change or are removed more frequently.
|
|
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
### Season Folder Format
|
|
|
|
For this there's only one real option to use in my opinion.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
Season {season:00}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
RESULT:
|
|
|
|
`Season 01`
|
|
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
### Multi-Episode Style
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
Prefixed Range
|
|
```
|
|
|

## Original Title vs Original Filename
|
|
|
|
If you want to keep the original release name that holds all the info of the file then I suggest to use `{Original Title}` over `{Original Filename}`
|
|
|
|
Why?
|
|
|
|
The filename can be Obscured where the Release naming isn't. Especially when you use Usenet.
|
|
|
|
`{Original Title}` => `The.Series.Title.S01E01.Episode.Title.1080p.AMZN.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.H.264-RlsGrp`
|
|
|
|
`{Original Filename}` => `show episode 1-1080p` or `lchd-tkk1080p` or `t1i0p3s7i8yuti`
