Does that mean that if I scrape all my movies with TinyMediaManager and move them to new hardware, I will still be able to use the data from the NFO files this year?
In other words, will all the data then be available locally in the movie folder?

My media isn’t listed on TMDB and plex is taking the information wrong. Can we please get nfo support?
NFO support is actively being worked on, hoping to have the initial implementation in the next release (next year only sorry).

Thank you.
Next year is a very flexible term; it could also be next Christmas.

Why didn’t you add it then? TMDB and theTVDB are both crowd-sourced metadata databases.
So someone can change what you put in there later? I prefer to control my own metadata. I don’t enjoy the idea of it being able to be changed (or sometimes vandalized) by any random person. .nfo files give you that level of control.

So others can potentially add additional info, and so other people can benefit from your contribution – much like you benefited from the contributions of a lot of other people providing the metadata for all the other media you have that did match.
Additional info perhaps, but not necessarily info I need or want. It’s true that I did scrape some info back in the day from TMDB and TheTVDB, but even that I edited to my needs. The way I do that may not suit others, so I just keep that stored locally. It comes down to a level of control.

Hello, I see it that way too, because various media centers have already implemented this.
