For some films, I adjusted the “sort by title” setting so that movies with different titles would appear in the correct order, one after another—but now that change has suddenly disappeared. Is there a setting somewhere that causes this to revert whenever new metadata is automatically loaded?
I see that it hasn’t changed for everything; for now, it has only been changed for Fast & Furious.
Should only happen if the item in question has been removed from the library and subsequently scanned in “as new”. i.e. a kind of Plex Dance.
Which can occur, if you enable “Empty trash automatically after every scan” and your server temporarily loses connection to the media storage. Which is why you should not tick this checkbox if your media is
- stored on external hard drives or a NAS
- stored on a hard drive which is allowed to spin down its platters to save power
Okay, in that case I will disable “empty trash automatically.” There was a power outage a while ago, but I don’t understand why this didn’t change for all the movies.
