Yep that’s Comcast. You have to call annually and threaten to cancel to get a semi reasonable price for cable and/or internet.

Plex does not recognize them in terms of pulling down metadata but you can still organize them in folders and browse that way. I find the Plex route is a healthier way to engage with video content than platforms that just keep serving you whatever the algorithm thinks will keep you peeled to the screen.
