Searching metadata files There might be pre-existing topics here but usually forums want you to start your own so.. New user to Plex! yay! It's friggin awesome so far.. I started using Plex because I bought a Roku and wanted to watch my downloaded content on it. Like many, many others.. anyway It's running ontop of Ubuntu 12.4.1 LTS on a SFF Dell optiplex 744 with 2gigs of ram and a FirePro V3800 (wasnt sure if GPU's affected the media server but I had it so I installed it) The issue is, I can search IMBD for 'The West' by Ken Burns and find it listed there. However Plex cannot.. I even installed the OpenMovieDatabase agent and restarted the service but still no results. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks! ---

Just to clarify I’m not asking solely because of this one movie… but there seems to be a disconnect for numerous other ‘non-headliner’ movies released. ---

Hi! Is this the correct “The West”? -\> [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0115418/](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0115418/) If so, you probably have better luck if it’s placed in a “TV” section instead of a “Movies” section (it’s listed on TheTVDB [http://thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=80105&lid=7](http://thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=80105&lid=7), which Plex uses as a source for TV series). ---

Oh wow… ok I assumed being the imdb agent searched it would return the results regardless of the category or channel it was housed in. Thanks for clearing that up for me. ---
