Plex agent/watch.plex.tv not scraping unpopular (foreign) updates

Server Version#: 1.32.5.7349
Player Version#: Any

I remember asking something like this last year about a missing movie in plex agent (also missing in watch.plex.tv). Later on, I figure out that there are some details required from tmdb (or maybe other sources) like certification. I added the required detail and after a week, it works. I did this with some other movies and shows as well and it works a few more times.

I don’t know when it started, but I don’t think plex automatically check for updated info anymore. I know it’s been said that they are being careful on adding legit movies/shows but I was wondering if there is a better way to do this after modifying details from tmdb or other sources. I don’t like making post about every movie/show I modified. Is there a method to report changes so it can be scrape again and be added to plex agent. I modified a bunch of movies 4 months ago but it’s still not there.

One example is this: Pitong Gamol (1991) — The Movie Database (TMDB)

Thank you!

Pitong Gamol (1991) shows up right away for me. You can also find it in the fix match by typing the name or using the tmdb id number

Are you having trouble matching any other titles?

I don’t have a problem matching it because plex will use tmdb (or other sources) if an item is not on their own database (check watch.plex.tv and search it there). One of the problem with not having the metadata on plex’s own database, shows/movies under and actor won’t show on Discover Credits.
