Unable to update original title
Setting metadata.seasons[num].summary does not work
I have confirmed there are not runtime error and printed the value to log file. But they do not show up in UI. All other fields work fine. Am I do something wrong? What is the proper way to update this two field?
Same here. actually i set and read back value of both fields, but cannot see the fields in the web gui where it shouldā¦
https://github.com/gboudreau/XBMCnfoMoviesImporter.bundle/issues/64 will give insight
title_sort does work though and can be updated agent side
Iām also running in to this issue. Plex seems to accept setting of the original_title field without issue, but it doesnāt update in the GUI.
Plex Devs, what is the correct way to set this field? In the XML view of a series that iāve manually set the value for, I can see the field is listed as originalTitle but this field isnāt considered valid by the Plugin Framework if I try to use it.
title of post should start with "Bug Report: ".
The field āoriginal_titleā is set to Value: āOne Pieceā by the agent but field not locked and empty still in plex web GUI
Experiencing the same behavior with the latest Plex Plass installed ā is there a workaround?
Bump!
Please fix or comment on this issue.
it is working fine here. Unless I am not understanding what you are trying to do. The original title does not really show up anywhere but you can use it to search . and the summary saves fine for me.
changed original title of the show The 100 to āMonkey Brainsā and hit save. now i can search by monkey and find that show
The fake season summary I added shows up fine too.
Thank you for the response ā but what we are looking for here is to be able to set this field via api/agents/plugins, etc.
Unless this has been fixed recently, setting this value via a metadata agent did not reflect on the GUI.
Setting the value via the Plex GUI works (as you have demonstrated), but not as described above.
Some additional detail:
This issue was observed a while back with the sort title field; where the value would be set but not reflected in the frontend.
This was addressed at some point as that field works properly now.
Would love if the original title field would get some of that love as well 
oh sorry. I will see what i can find out.
Any updates from the team?
Ref: How to set original title for tv show programmatically?
There is no way to do that at this time. I made a report to see if it can be added but I canāt make any promises that it will be.
Thank you for following up ā knowing that a report is in there is appreciated; hopefully they can get to it in the future!
