Hi All,

&nbsp;

I've been running PMS now for over a year and have had no problems with the Metadata agents pulling down both TV and Movie coverart and descriptions. &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Since I've updated to 0.9.8.10 I've had the problem that no metadata is downloaded for my TV and Movies. &nbsp;I'm not sure how to correct this - even if I do a manual lookup (Fix Metadata) it doesn't work.

&nbsp;

Any help would be appreciated

&nbsp;

Regards,

&nbsp;

Steve

Hi there,

I just noticed the same issue today. &nbsp;I'm on a Mac and have no issues until today. When I go to Agents, nothing is loading. Also takes a very long time to try and adjust any settings.

Any suggestions?

I have had the same issue all week, I have tried removing and re adding but it doesn't seem to work.

I also have checked the Agent's settings, and file structure.

The TV shows are on TheTVDB, but I can never get a match for anything, anymore :(

Not really the right forum for this guys, but....

try doing a bundle reset (generally a sticky thread in the PMS section of whatever OS your are running)

If that does not work, best open a thread in the relevant PMS forum, with some details on your server and some logs which show a scan.

Thanks for the advise, did the bundle reset to no avail. &nbsp;Will post in the PMS Win7 section of the forum.

I was just getting ready to buy a plex pass too, but this is quite a discouragement.

Having the same issue after updating to Plex Server for Windows 0.9.8.10

There are threads all over the place about this. Hope it gets fixed soon.
