I returned from vacation to find some new changes, one of which is the renaming of Refresh to “Refresh All Metadata.” When I click this command, a message appears, the first sentence of which is as follows: > Forces a download of fresh media information from the internet. > My question is this: If my libraries are set to use embedded tags, does the command still force downloading of fresh media information **_from the internet?_** Or will it still prioritize my embedded tags? Disappointed to see from the experiences of others that this appears to be a cosmetic change only, and the bug(s) that necessitate the [Plex Dance](https://forums.plex.tv/t/the-plex-dance/197064) are apparently unchanged. ---

Are you confusing this with the also just renamed “Scan Library Files”? @beckfield I’m sure you know this but if unsure how these work create a test lib pointed to a half dozen movies. Make some changes to the meta-data and lock it. Then test the functionality. ---

@beckfield - Yes, it is just a rename of the command to better explain what it does. What we discussed in your other thread hasn’t been implemented yet. ---

So the phrase “…from the internet” isn’t necessarily accurate, if local embedded tags are present and preferred. ---
