It has been a while since I originally set my Plex up, and I’m doing a reinstall due to a few computer issues. I primarily use my Plex account for my music collection. After a painstaking process to update all the metadata in my almost 12000 song music collection, I would like to favor THAT metadata over any other Plex may “search” for.

Thanks for any help guys!

Thanks so much! I appreciate it!
