The artist Name “Lori” is tagged properly on the file itself. However plex keeps overwriting it to “Lorie”. I tried editing manually in plex however the app thinks it knows better than me and keeps putting “Lorie”. Can someone help? Thanks
Do you have Local Media Assets (Albums) enabled in your artist settings?
Keep in mind… enabling this will not automatically apply to already scanned/matched media.
yes i have that checked and it still behaving the same as mentioned above.
here is the metadata from mp3 tag
and here is what shows in plex
Is there anyway to remove the artist scraping from plex or disable it. For my library it picks the wrong artist about 80% of the time and has incorrect artist artwork and biography etc. Thanks for the help
You should be able do to that in the Advanced settings of a library (... > Manage Library > Edit..., Advanced tab). Keep in mind, changing those parameters will only apply to newly added / matched content… so it might be best to apply this in a new library.
set Genres to Embedded Tags
set Album Art to Local Files Only I’m not 100% if this will include embedded art or only cover images stored alongside your music files
set Agent to Personal Media Artists
Also… double check if you want to include Local Media Assets with this agent (in Settings > Server > Agents for Artists > Personal Media Artists and Albums > Personal Media Albums)
