Plex Movie Agent: Add matching by ID

Feature Suggestions
1

Hello,

For some independent movies or some short movies, the number of suggestion for matching is often very high. Sometimes, the movie exists on The Movie database but it doesn’t match and/or it was not present in the list because there is already a lot of suggestion.
Is is possible to add the option to give the direct ID on the movie db to match it? If several databases are managed, add the option “databases/id in this database”.

Thanks a lot,

Laurent

You can already do this by passing a special prefix and the id in the Title field of Fix Match.

Valid prefixes are imdb, tmdb and tvdb.

Example: tmdb-857 or imdb-tt0173772 will attempt to find these exact ids from TheMovieDatabase and IMDb respectively.

You can also pass these IDs to the scanner already in the file or folder name: Naming and organizing your Movie files | Plex Support
