Plex will not download meta data for some movies

I see that you have Plex data on E:\PlexAppData\Plex Media Server\

Anything out of the ordinary about that drive? Network drive? ReFS? Drive Pool?

Nope, its a standard 1TB spin drive thats installed on the PC. its just that the data gets a bit big and the OS is on an older SSD thats only 128GB. With the other things installed it started to run out of space.

I cannot find the place in your logs where you performed the Plex dance on this movie. They are swamped with messages from a complete tv show refresh and also a photo library update.
Don’t attempt to update one library while another library update or refresh is still in progress.

I does that automatically after I finished the update of the other library.

You might wanna disable ‘automatic library update’ until you have found out what causes the time stamp of all your media folder to change.

While I did not find anything obviously wrong in the logs regarding to your original issue, I see you have something problematic in your folder organisation:

You have a documentary series folder under
F:\TV\Archive\Documentary
I assume there is a tv show library pointing there.
But then at the same time there is a deeper series folder hierarchy at
F:\TV\Archive\Documentary\Derren Brown\Series\
This won’t work (or will at least produce strange side effects), even if you have a separate library pointing to this folder, because it is already contained in the other series hierarchy above.

And every scan appears to update this sub-hierarchy of folders again and again.

How many tv show libraries do you use? I assume there are quite a few.

Then there are some lonely subtitle files which are not useful unless they get renamed a bit
Game of Thrones\Season 2\Subs\English For Non-English Dialogue\GoT S02E01 The North Remembers 720p.English (Forced).srt
should be
Game of Thrones\Season 2\file_name_of_the_video_file.eng.forced.srt

You should give Filebot a chance to improve your file name conformance.
