**_I have quite a few documentaries but I can not locate any metadata source.&nbsp; I've tried the movieDB and TVDB which were of no help.&nbsp;_**

**_Anyone have any idea?_**

(Note for Moderators) I posted this question on the General Chat forum earlier because I didn't know where to ask the question.&nbsp; Because I'm still not sure I left it there as well.
