Now that we have an online source for tagging our photos, I guess I shouldn’t be too surprised to find that, like Last.FM and Gracenote, the online source’s accuracy (and therefore usefulness) is, shall we say, less than stellar. Plex’s implementation of the option to use embedded tags in Music lib…

Definitely. It seems to be a bit ridiculous that they’ve introduced a new automatic tagging feature (that sends photos to a third party!) and still don’t pull existing ones from the photos themselves!

It would be really good, if Plex can use embedded tags from EXIF & XMP, I have my photos name tagged using Picasa. I Plex can read those tags, it would be really great.

I would also like to see this “Use Embedded Tags” option. We would find it most helpful to be able to search the Plex Library for 3rd party assigned keywords that are accessible to exiftool queries. We tag our photos with Adobe Lightroom, which appends keywords to the EXIF / IPTC fields in the ima…

Yes please!!! I thought this would be the case when we got photo tags. But nope, another “easy way” of plex’s. I’m same, have begun tagging my photos with EXIF data. Would certainly be nice! I have descriptions on loads of them.

##All we can do now it try to get the developer attention by bringing more traffic to this thread and getting more LIKES on beckfield’s post!

Definately a needed feature, especially a way to display the EXIF description somewhere (bottom of the screen?),while the running a slideshow.

Would be a really nice feature, please implement.
