Plex NFO Agent Forum Preview

In followup from Plex NFO Agent Forum Preview - #106 by dokuro above, today I migrated my entire server …

  • Movies - 4,727
  • Shows - 1.206
  • Episodes - 43,395
  • Played Dashboard HIstory: 29,707 (across movies & episodes)

All updated well from the checks I have done so far, showing the metadata I included within the nfo loaded into plex and the remaining pulled from the plex metadata secondary providers.

Checking watched status, played history and also running some db checks against metadata_items, metadata_item_settings and metadata_item_views tables I can see everything has moved from a plex:// id to a tv.plex.agents.nfo id. Sample queries below:

SELECT id, title, originally_available_at, added_at, updated_at from metadata_items WHERE guid GLOB 'plex://movie/*';
SELECT id, title, originally_available_at, added_at, updated_at from metadata_items WHERE guid GLOB 'plex://show/*';
SELECT id, title, originally_available_at, added_at, updated_at from metadata_items WHERE guid GLOB 'plex://episode/*';

The biggest issue I have is that discovery credits does not load anything from the media libraries using a custom agent using the nfo’s + plex providers. You can see here only known For is shown.

Is this a bug which will be fixed or is this expected behaviour ?
