I've just re-installed my QNAP and setup PMS from scratch but although I have local media assets as first choice in all agents PMS still doesn't use the embedded metadata in the .m4v.
I prefer my movies to be sorted in the order they were released (especially when in collections) and it's very time-consuming to have to manually setup Sort Title and create Collections when all this information is embedded into the file. (If I import these files into iTunes, all the embedded information is read and used).
Am I missing something or can't PMS read the following tags embeded into the .m4v?
Sort Name
Sort Album
Embedded Thumbnail (I would prefer PMS to use the embedded Thumbnail by default but it doesn't).
For information:
PMS Server: QNAP TS-670 Pro
PMS Version: 0.9.8.18
.m4v creation tool: Handbrake
.m4v Tagging Tool: Mac OS X Subler
File Name Example: Film Name (year).m4v
