Hi, not sure what has gone wrong or maybe changed in the background for how the kids profiles work, but I have a lot of movies rated U and none of them appear on my kids profiles. They’re using ‘older kid’ profiles.
I ended up not using the built in profiles and simply tagging the movies, add a sharing tag as ‘kids’ or for each user and you can specify exactly what you would like them to be able to access without relying on the ratings being picked up correctly on the metadata - and also add some extra titles outside of the content ratings if you think they are suitable. The profiles are then created with access to only the tags you specify. Filtering the movies on your main profiles allows to list them quickly into ratings and do multiple selections to add the tags - you can also filter by those titles without tags to make sure you don’t miss anything!
Yes. It also works if I change the Certification Country to United States and refresh the metadata. I’ve left it like that for now, but I’d much rather use the UK certificates.
Content is from US & UK. I don’t think that’s relevant, though. In both cases Plex gets the right metadata (setting the content rating to U if I have certification county set to UK, and G if it’s set to US).
I know I could set up a separate library, but I’d much rather Plex fixed the bug Having a single library for everyone is much simpler and more elegant.
Of cause but the kids are waiting, up to you. As for elegant, the kids will only see two Libraries, can’t see the logic in that.
I live in Australia and as content is mainly from US, CA, UK, Library is set to US. Yeah not keen on it, but reality tells me otherwise as matching can create headaches. DVR settings are determined by the Library for Recorded content.
You will run into release time issues with some content, release in US one year and in the follow year the Uk and Vice Versa
