Check the naming of the files.
Since its a mini-series they might be named something like band.of.brothers.partII.720p.mkv or similar (The Pacific is also named similarly) and if they are indeed named like that you either need to rename the files (best option because its a one time fix) or manually add the episodes (manual handling takes time and is boooooooooring and if your db dies for some reason, you'll have to do it all again).
I recommend renaming the files to something in the style of band.of.brothers.s01e02.720p.mkv because the plugin will automagically find them and add them and as a bonus, if you're unlucky and lose your db they will be equally easy to re-add the next time around.

You need to check the wiki for TVMosaic, you have recordings as source available once TVM is installed. And of course images and music are part of the NET6 version as for NET4. If you have issues with it further infos would be good.
