How Can I get Plex to read the mp4 metadata for my fitness videos?

I have a bunch of fitness videos (p90x etc). I edited the metadata using plex but it erases if I make any changes to the file structure.

I then proceeded to purchase metadoctor pro to edit the metadata in my files so that plex would pick it up and I wouldnt have to enter the info everytime. However, it doesnt read it at all.

Any help or ideas with this would be awesome.

Furthermore, is there a way to assign a specific agent for a specific library?

Thank you!

I managed to select my agent like you said.

However, Its not reading the metadata. The main thing I want it to read is the name of the video file. For example, it would be like chest and arms. I edit the metadata on the file so plex would read it but it doesnt.

I can edit the name using plex but that erases quickly.

I currently have it set as a tv show library since there are multiple videos per workout series. Everything works great, im just wanting plex to read the metadata from the file so I dont have to edit it everytime it erases.

This is how my agents look. Is it correct?

See, I edit the metadata using metadoctor, but plex just reads it as episode 1 even though the name is saved in the metadata.
