Plex Music Agent Messing Up Local Media Metadata

Server Version#: Version 1.27.2.5929
Player Version#: Version 4.85.1

Hello - I have my own music tagged to my liking (i.e. I have the featured artist in the Title field while the artist title is a single main artist). Plex used to follow my own local metadata but in recent weeks/months, it’s now showing it’s own metadata i.e. the artist field is not showing the local metadata but pulling some metadata based on the match which duplicates the featuring part (seemingly based on the “Plex Music” scanner & agent? I’ve had it set to Plex Music for both for a long time though).

How do i fix this so that it follows my own local metadata instead of pulling metadata selectively? For example, it’s keeping my local metadata for the title but it’s pulling a Plex Music artist metadata. I want just my own local metadata but also keep the feature of giving descriptions / ratings / album art matching to matched albums.

I’ve also noticed this and would love for it to be fixed as it was fine before.

Bump - any update here?

Hey, I think the same issue is being looked at here
