Just a rebump to say that the movie posters keep changing periodically and its pissing me off, Im seriously considering switching app, i dont even recommand it anymore to friends. You have 2 jobs Plex, keep my library to my liking and let me play them.  
And yes i know there are ways to prevent this, by unchecking the autrefresh metadata box, which is stupid because there’s metadata that should be refreshed, or to add the poster in the folder, which is too time consuming. I have over 1300 movies im not gonna do that its crazy.

Cant you guys please fix this problem, im sure there’s an easy fix, just add an option to select which meta data we want to periodically update, this way we can unselect the poster.

Thanks for reading
