Metadata Manager failing to get any metadata

Even though a new file is "detected", no meta-data is grabbed...  I found this in my logs:  Any ideas?

I don't think there is another application.  I used to run Media Center Master, but that hasn't been run since 2013... this is a brand new movie that I just added to my library.  Is there a way to force refresh of all meta-data and overwrite existing info?

where did you acquire this movie? we've seen this before and chances are it came along with an nfo already and so we used that as your metadata. that's why clicking refresh in the metadata manager populates it.

This happens with ANY movie I get...  Regardless of whether there is an .nfo file in the directory or not.  Those that do not have an .nfo file are not detected either.

 

Any suggestions?

For videos that you add that already have nfo's it is expected behavior.

 

For videos that you add that don't already have an nfo, post the server log the next time it happens.

Wow - it worked... so the trick is to never have an .nfo file in the same directory as an .mkv file?

 

Is there not a way to force MediaBrowser to ignore existing .nfo files?

 

Likewise, is there a way to "force metadata retrieval" or "retrieve subtitles" of a particular title from within MB Classic?

No, because, if an nfo is there we assume it is want you want respected.  If we ignored "existing" nfo files, we would never be able to read our own metadata (or anyone else's)...

Ctl-R or the 'record' button.
