It appears that TMDB is no longer allowing TV Movies in the database, so now all of the TV Movies aren’t able to be matched in a Movie Library. Is the only option to move them into a TV Show Library? It’s odd because just last night Plex helpfully provided me with a recommended category of TV Movies in my Movies Library but, how can I have that if the metadata sources won’t match TV Movies anymore?
Is there an easy fix out there that anyone has already found?
TMDB is ‘selectively’ disallowing TV Movies. I asked them why they had deleted:
Family Guy Presents Blue Harvest (2007)
and I was told it was never a ‘Proper’ Movie - only a TV Show Episode - and me standing like an idiot holding in my hand the DVD that states it’s:
Family Guy Presents Blue Harvest (2007)…
(Well, I never…)
Yea, I had to Fix Match and Change the Agent to Personal Media - then hand edit an item I had added to TMDB… TWICE!
And I’m still not over it… will probably never get over it…
For Example:
Star Trek Renegades IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2621446/
Only shows as a TV Show on TMDB.
It may be argued that the movie was originally a Miniseries, which is also not allowed in the Movies section of TMDB.
Which says:
1h 28min | Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi | TV Series (2015– )
Episode Guide: 2 episodes
So also not a movie according to IMDB?
And shows up as a series here: Star Trek: Renegades - TheTVDB.com
