Odd issue where one particular title - so far as I’ve noticed - is not showing up in the “Movies & Shows in Media Libraries” when clicking an actor icon but does show up if I search for the actor. In this case it’s “The Outsiders”.
Example using Patrick Swayze:
Searching for Patrick:
After clicking on his cast picture from one of those movies:
The same happens for all of the actors in The Outsiders so I assume it’s something with the specific title. I did rescan and refreshed the metadata just in case. I haven’t tried a plex dance yet - trying to avoid it.
It’s a totally minor thing but caught my eye so thought I’d see if anybody had any thoughts?

Hope that catches the right things.
Hm, that looks quite ordinary.
Is the library excempt from the home page or search results? (as per its properties)

Discover won’t show you items that have an Edition tag media that’s available in your library.
I just verified that myself.
I looked up Ed Harris and it doesn’t show the Director’s Cut of The Abyss which I have in my library.
Ah… I was wondering about that but hadn’t tried anything with it until just now and started to see that happening … and that’s very disappointing.
I just did that with Abyss Special Edition too and got the same results (it was my first edition tagged movie in my library alphabetically).
Not what I was expecting - the “bug” being an expected function - but I appreciate the quick responses and at least the mystery is solved.
I guess I’ll reverse all the editions tagging I did and go back to putting “Director’s Cut” or “Special Edition” in the title manually; and splitting\unmatching them when I have multiple editions… guess I’ll have to think about it a bit. I don’t want movies to not show up when expected - we use that cast function to find other movies with same actor a lot.
It might be helpful to add this caveat about using the Editions feature to the Editions article .
Again, thanks for the quick help on it!
