Hi all,
Quick question, as the title says, where does Plex gets its TV rating from?
The reason I ask is that I have one particular movie for my kids that does not appear in their profile, they have the **Younger Kid** parental controls selected.
But the thing is, it is an AL (Dutch rating for ‘approved for all ages’) movie, so there should not be an issue right?
I am keen to fix this as I like the accounts to be seperate. Also, I cant seem to find where Plex had put the rating that it is using.
Any advice?

Are you talking about a series in your personal media library, or one that is available for free (with advertising) on Plex’s library or streaming channels?

Sorry, I was not clear. It is indeed a movie from my own collection in my own library.

The rating should be immediately visible and editable when you edit the movie in question.
If you overwrite the “AL” with a “G”, does the film become available?

Can you give me a hint where the AL or G should be located?

Using Plex Web, edit the movie/show using the pencil icon. Along with Title, Sort Title, etc. there is a Content Rating field.
