I have a freshly built Ubuntu 18.04 server running Plex headless. I mounted share from Synology DS218j (8TB) NAS (192.168.1.99:/Storage/ → /home/user/Plex/).

I just made it scan all of my data overnight (music, movies, and tv shows) and it just refuses to apply metadata to some shows. I don’t know enough about it to go into detail. I have looked at the console and found tons of errors that look like this:

Error bringing media local (metadata://seasons/1/posters/com.plexapp.agents.thetvdb\_a0ea5b17317083ab0bea584284804a1378b41022).

I have read other similar posts that explain this might be due to TheTVdb website updating their API. 🤷‍♂️

Server Version#: 1.16.3.1433  
Player Version#: 4.01 (?)

It wouldn’t surprise me at all. I see all the media being scanned and added.  
After it completes, perform a “Refresh All Metadata”.  
Then, like the rest of us, we wait. Give it 24 hours. Make sure the butler is set to get metadata as well when it runs.
