IncorrectMeta data and posters on my own videos

Hi.

I have noticed that there have been some of my videos that get movie info assigned to them with posters, casts etc,

At first I thought it was a wrong video and deleted them to find out later it was the right video but wrong info.

How can I stop the wrong info being assigned to a video.

Thanks

Do you have a specific example of what you mean

Things like posters and show descriptions can change after a metadata refresh

Plex picks the most popular show poster at the time it’s originally matched but that can change

Cast pictures also change and this is voted on my members at the TMDB. Are you saying it’s a totally different cast being shown?

Are these items matching completely different shows, different show orders etc.?

Are they regular movies (like Avenger’s or Spaceballs), or are they personal (like a niece’s play)?

If the former, make sure you use accurate naming schemes for your media, as explained in this Plex article.

If the latter, then make sure you are using a personal media type of library, called in Plex as “Other Media”. If you do so, Plex will not attempt to match the video files you have against online databases such as IMDB.
