Movie metadata

You can use mp3tag to remove tags from mp4 files.
It doesn’t matter if they’re tv shows or movies.

If the “mismatch” is stuck in Plex’s database, you might have to perform the
Plex Dance

Here is another method to avoid those embedded meta tags from getting too much attention:

Go to

  • Settings - Server - Agents - Shows - TheTVDB

In there, grab the line ‘Local Media Assets’ with your mouse and drag it downwards, so it ends up being at the bottom of the stack of active agents.
Repeat the same under

  • Settings - Server - Agents - Shows - TheMovieDatabase
  • Settings - Server - Agents - Movies - Plex Movie
  • Settings - Server - Agents - Movies - TheMovieDatabase
