Just wanted to post a quick note in case anyone is having similar issues that I have been having with Plex. I had some headaches getting my Plex server to find new recordings made by NPVR. Reading through the forums I found tons of helpful advice from all of you so most of this can be found though search, but this is what worked for me:

1) disable metadata fetching in npvr's settings misc2 page
2) clear out anything that npvr has already downloaded into the \Media\Shows folder.
3) use ImageGrabLite with the -rename option

hope this helps someone else,
Thanks to all who ask and answer questions here!

Interesting.. I use ImageGrabLite for renaming files that Plex uses with a Roku box in the bedroom. Recently, not all npvr recordings are being picked up by Plex. I changed settings, and emptied the folder. Hope this helps!

Thanks, Greg

I use MCEBuddy to trim/compress/rename everything for Plex Smile
