Plex Issue With Years Using The Movie Database Agent

TMDB is overrun with contributors - who also happen to be idiots. I’m one of them, but this idiot goes over there and deletes a 2020 year from Casablanca (1942) - 'cause my cousin saw it at a friend’s house on Tuesday.

It’s absolutely a Plex Problem.
Plex is looking at the very latest date some idiot entered - when they should be looking at the oldest/original/correct release date - not the SuperDuper New DVD Release Date when I found it in a big cardboard bin down at The Wal-Mart.

The work-around…:

Join TMDB, go over there and delete ‘release dates’ that aren’t the original.
Edit the item - which you’ll have to do anyway - 'cause changes you make have to ‘ferment’ for 24 hours before they work.
And Hope Plex eventually figures out there’s something gone horribly wrong at TMDB - then do something about it.

FileBot doesn’t go sniffing around through TMDB’s hamper looking for the newest and juiciest - it just gets the release date and names the file.

Funny (not ha ha) how Plex has to make everything difficult.
