Wrong auto mapping - stuck with wrong artwork

Plex Media Server NAS & Devices

Server Version#: v.1.32.8.7639-fb6452ebf

Strangely, the programme Berlin 1933 was auto mapped to a Ben Foygle programme; I’ve corrected the mapping but now I’m stuck with a big Ben Foygle poster and can’t get rid of it.

It seems that when the auto mapping finds a “match” it populated the artwork - so far so good; but when auto mapping is wrong and you correct it but the correct programme doesn’t have another artwork you’re left with the artwork fro the incorrectly mapped programme.

The easiest may be to be able to deselect an artwork. If there are multiple images, you can change the selection but if there is only one image and that image is from the wrong programme you’re stuck with it.

Try refreshing the metadata for the show.

If I choose TheTVDB(Aired) episode ordering, I also get episode titles. Edit the show (pencil icon) → Advanced → Episode ordering.

You can also Plex Dance the show.

This matched correctly on my system, pulling the correct show poster:

/tv
../Berlin 1933 (2023)
..../Season 01
....../Berlin 1933 (2023) s01e01.mkv

Thanks @FordGuy61 - refreshing the metadata was one of the first things I tried; I tried again but it makes no difference; but I appreciate your tip about the episode ordering - this worked for me :+1:

Here you can see Ben Foygle in the background of the show

Problem is this:

The effort of doing the Plex Dance is not really justified for this - I can live with it as it is, and I really wanted to change it I would just upload another image and then select that.

But it would be much better if Plex would allow you to deselect the image. The logic for this must be there as you can select images if there is more than one. For some reason, this is disabled when there is only one image.
