I want that the movie titles in plex library are always identical with the respective file name. There shall be no matching of Metadata with any agent. My movies are structured in various folders. So far I have always manually changed the title to match the name the respective file and i have locked the respective fields. I would want that i do not need to change those titles back to the filename.
Apart from the above preferred process I have the problem that the movie titles are always changed when a new movie is added to specific folder, when I have updated the library. This is extremely annoying as i am constantly correcting movie-titles which have already done (and locked).
PLEASE HELP
Just create a Home Video library and point it to your files.

It does exactly what you want: no lookup for and download of any external metadata.
Thanks a lot Otto. I tried so many different possibilities and the solution you propopsed was excellent. It finally worked! Greetings from Switzerland,
