I have a similar issue with music. I was editing some tags and accidentally used the artist name for the album too. I tried fixing this, but it seemed to have a stop and was spinning while trying to update the tags for the song. Eventually it threw an error about unable to update the file. Looking for it later, the tags I was trying to edit (Track and album titles) are blank. Any attempt to update them “appears” to save, but going back to the details shows the fields are blank again.
I already removed the file, moved file around, done scans/cleanup trash/plex dance. Even tried restarts of the server itself. The file seems to be “stuck” in plex limbo, and anytime I re-add the same file it seems to associate so it doesn’t give me a new song loaded, but I still can’t manipulate the “bugged” song.
The odd part is when moving the file to a different folder, it will pick up on the new location of the file when checking the details but still won’t let me manipulate any of the tags/details to adjust the title or similar again.
I’m thinking of editing the tags for the song locally, putting into a different directory again, and seeing if it will at least find the song again. I would still have this “bugged” version of the song lingering around though.
