Now that we have an [online source for tagging](https://support.plex.tv/articles/234976627-auto-tagging-of-photos/) our photos, I guess I shouldn’t be too surprised to find that, like Last.FM and Gracenote, the online source’s accuracy (and therefore usefulness) is, shall we say, less than stellar.

Plex’s implementation of the option to use embedded tags in Music libraries has, in my mind, had the greatest impact on the usability of Plex as a whole. The headaches I endured because of the garbage metadata that came from Last.FM and Gracenote are a thing of the past, because of this one change in Plex. I think, if Plex were to implement the same feature in Photo libraries, it would have the same high level of impact on Plex’s usability.

Please implement the ‘Use embedded tags’ feature in Photo libraries.

And please, to everyone who agrees, add your vote!
