I have updated the download links in the first post, the latest version is now 1.19.5.2916-4ebbedbaf
New:
- Embedded tag support.
Fixes:
- Speed optimizations for setups where all movies are in a single folder.
- Language wasn’t getting detected on sidecar subtitles with 3-letter language codes.
- Regression from 1.19.4 with music where items were getting re-matched during refreshes and leaving them with the incorrect guids (this update will make sure these get their proper guids back after a scheduled refresh).
A note on embedded tags (local metadata)
We’ll analyze the files for specific embedded metadata and use these values if we don’t have a value from the agent match, e.g. if your file has an embedded summary but the Plex agent doesn’t have this for the match then we’ll use the file’s metadata.
If you set the advanced library option “Prefer local metadata” then we’ll always prefer embedded metadata from the file over what the agent provides. Please DO NOT enable this if you don’t curate your own embedded tags in your files or if you’re not just testing it out (and thank you if you are). Setting this option is akin to moving the “Local media assets” to the top in the current agent.
Embedded tags are only fully support on MP4 containers (.mp4, .mov, .m4v) but have limited support for embedded Titles only for other containers like MKV.
