How to search Metadata for where a file is used

I'm needing to search my metadata to find were a file is listed.  All my movies are in .mkv format and located in one directory.  I have a .mkv file that isn't associated to the correct movie description in the metadata manager.  Is there a way to search which movie the file is associated to?

 

For example, in my directory I have a file name of, "Twilight (4) Breaking Dawn-Part 2.mkv", but when looking at my movies in MB it isn't displayed.  So how do I search which movie is associated to a specific file?

we don't have that at the moment but that is a good idea i will make note of. 

 

if you have local metadata saving enabled you can look at that to see the title and go from there. if you have the corresponding part 1 it is most likely grouped with that

Thank you Luke, I don't have the metadata saved locally, yet.  And I checked to see if it was grouped, but no luck there either.

 

Can I manually add a movie (the missing movie) thru the metadata manager, instead of it just scanning the files?

 

I thought about moving the file, having MB scan files, then move it back, and rescan.  Wouldn't that cause it to show up in my latest group?

 

Thanks!
