About
This is a Plex Media Server agent for retrieving metadata from files you place alongside your media. It can be helpful for auto-categorizing files. You can get it from: github.com/qreeves/MetadataFile.bundle
Usage
There are two types of files, metadata and catalog. The agent will recurse back through the directory tree looking for these files.
Metadata Files
Metadata files can either be the name of the first part with “.ini” appended (specific), or “_metadata” (general). They contain a [metadata] header, and options named for each metadata section (see below).
Catalog Files
Catalog files are just named “_catalog” which contain headers that are a regular expression match against the “media title”, and have the same options as metadata files (see below).
