Discover Credits not working in Search

If this is not the correct location, please move it; thank you!

Server Version#: Linux - Version 1.41.2.9200

Currently having an issue where my Discover Credits works in all of my TV and Movie libraries but when searching I only get the individualized filtered libraries.

I have four libraries for video, two for Movies, and two for TV.

  1. Movie Library A is my primary movie library, it has Scanner/Agent set to Plex Movie, and does not have ‘Include adult content’ checked. When going into a movie, you can click on an actor and it brings up their Discover Credits page with shows/movies they’re in, Media Libraries, Known For, etc.
  2. Movie Library B is currently empty. It has Scanner/Agent set to Plex Movie and does not have ‘Include adult content’ checked.
  3. TV Library A is my primary TV library. It has Scanner set to ‘Plex TV Series’ and Agent set to ‘Plex Series’ and does not have ‘Include adult content’ checked. When going into a show, you can click on an actor, and it brings up their Discover Credits page with shows/movies they’re in, Media Libraries, Known For, etc.
  4. TV Library B is my anime library; it has Scanner set to ‘Plex TV Series,’ and Agent set to ‘Plex Series,’ and does not have ‘Include adult content’ checked. It did have ‘Include adult content’ checked prior, but I have since changed it and refreshed the metadata. Now, when going into a show, you can click on an actor, and it brings up their Discover Credits page with shows/movies they’re in, Media Libraries, Known For, etc.

I have refreshed all metadata on all four libraries multiple times. I have restarted my Plex server, I have tried the latest Android client, the web client, and my Plex for Windows client. I have tried logging out and logging back in. I have tried quitting, ending the process, and switching users.

The account I have primarily tested on is not a Managed User; it is the administrator/owner of the server.

I am happy to provide logs or change settings. I would ideally like to avoid deleting my libraries just because I have Tautulli, Overseerr, etc. setup, and that would be a pain, but if necessary, I can.

This has been driving me nuts, so I would appreciate any help.

Do you have More Ways toWatch disabled in search?

Without enabled it will look like this and show the server name below. this will go to filtered library

With enabled it it will look like this and go to discover credits

Ah, I have that disabled completely; I didn’t realize it was required. Thank you very much for the quick and concise assistance!
