Plex TV Shows - Now downloading Meta Files (I want it the old way - Plex would scrape meta but not download meta files)

Plex Media Server Metadata & Adding Files
1

Player Version#: 4.57.2

I’m not sure what changed in my settings, but in the past, the TV Show meta data updated the Plex Player, but didn’t download meta files.

For some reason, something has changed, and is now downloading meta files into the TV Show folders.. which I don’t want.. mainly because when I delete the TV Show, the meta data remains in the folders.

I’ve attached my Agents settings for Shows. All gear icon settings are unchecked.

Also have attached The TV Libary settings.

I’m not aware of any agents “downloading meta files”. Could you elaborate on what exactly is being downloaded – are you referring to some files containing metadata that are stored alongside your media?

Are you by chance using some other apps in your media processing?

Thanks! Good to know it’s not Plex!
