Recently, only Plex Movie appears to tag movies. Is this intentional? I have always had the ability to use alternative agents when Plex Movie does not find a match. This happens when the file is unmatched or incorrectly matched. Thanks in advance.

I have the same issue on my end, not sure exactly when this started occuring. Only the “Plex Movie” agent shows up for movies, even if The Movie Database is checked in the Agents setting menu.
The Movie Database does show up for tv shows, so it seems to be specific to movies. This is kind of annoying since i have a few movies that doesn’t seem to be matching with Plex Movie and can’t do any alternative right now.

No help on this topic? No one else has this issue? I thought there would be better support.
This is normally now. Once a library has been updated to use the new movie agent then the other agents are irrelevant and now used anymore.
Is there a specific issue or matching problem you have?
Thanks for the response and help. Not an issue with tagging a specific movie, but I had liked using the different agents to see the different tags.
The new agent gets its data from all the other data sources.
I just updated my Plex Server and got the exact same issue of only having Plex Movie as Movie Agent, despite having themoviedb as a secondary source of metadata. It does show for tv shows, though. Normally I wouldn’t even notice (so I don’t know for how long this has been happening) but these past few days I’ve had some unmatched movies and that’s why I tried to fix them just to find no options in my movie agents.
Plex Movie and Plex Movie (Legacy) are two different agents. Plex Movie does not have secondary agents.
they are writtren in complete different code that is why they cannot work together in one library.
Which movies? Does it not find anything when trying to manually match/fix match ?
Very Interesting. Then I simply had not realized this behavior (which means I had not had mismatches, coincidentally, until recently) … right now, this one doesn’t return a match:
Thanks for your feedback!
If the new agent is having trouble finding something you can either add the IMDBid https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5496204/ in the file name Fruits of the Heart (2021) {imdb-tt5496204}.mkv.
You can also use it in the search when doing a manual match.
This is absolutely perfect! Thank you for your clarification and help on the matter 
…and the imdb trick is absolutely awesome!
