Years ago I added personal media to my Plex library. I’ve edited all meta data myself because Plex cannot read files with meta data.
But I want to reorganize my personal media. But I do not want to import, edit en organize it all again within Plex.
Is there a way to do this?
Reorganizing is moving files and folders and rename the files itself.
By re-organising, do you mean moving into new folders etc?
If the files stay in the same library, you should mostly be OK (as long as you are not interfering with the ability for Plex to recognise the film/show.
Try it by moving one film and then rescanning.

I have to add again: this is personal media, and there is no imdb/tvdb entrance for the titles!
sorry, I missed reading that for some reason.
This process should preserve your metadata edits. I’m not certain, but renaming the file might cause the metadata to be lost, so I would follow the process without renaming initially.
It would be nice if Plex finally could read info files for personal media…
