Analyzing file changes the release date of a video

Plex Media Server Metadata & Adding Files

Plex Version: 1.40.5.8921
OS: Linux denebx128-plex 6.8.0-41-generic #41-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri Aug 2 20:41:06 UTC 2024 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

The problem is very simple: get a video with a specific release date (creation date). Add video to the server. Every time the video is analyzed, it will modify the release date to the date it was added. Refreshing the metadata then fixes it, until it gets analyzed again.

Scanner: Plex Video Files
Agent: Plex Personal Media
Video example: Watch 2024-09-03 00-32-21 | Streamable

Now imagine this multiplied by 41131 and it can get very frustrating (if only there was at least a Select All to lock the dates all at once…)
