I’m seeing same with Plex Web (app.plex.tv) and Android Mobile 2025.19 (didn’t check any others). PMS 1.41.8.9834 / Plex Web [1.41.8.9834] PMS 1.41.9.9917 / Plex Web [1.41.9.9917]

yeah, I embed them (“Whisper AI generated”) in movies with the a notification that that are AI generated, but that’s too much to do for a single series, let alone several dozen series. My software which I use to batch merge videos doesn’t support adding a “track name.” :face_with_diagonal_mouth:
