Write Actor ID's to NFO feature possible?

[tedfroop21 86]

So one of the things I think about is adding actor ID's to NFO's. 

I know backup and all that BUT lets say you had issues and wanted a fresh start.  If you had NFO's and they had ID's like actor Ivan Dixon and 95224-ivan-dixon,  then all the bit part players or non mainstream actors would show up, first scan. 

All the bit part actors who used 5-6 names would always show up as one actor....(and show up without manual lookup.)  Same for adult content where actors may use several names during their career. 

You can have the name as listed in the credits and use the meta ID to link them to one actor profile.

Just thinkin.....

Hi, Emby already supports reading and writing this information to and from nfo files.

[tedfroop21 86]

Don't know.  I must not understand how to trigger the NFO to write or update.

Maybe you just don't have the info to begin with in your emby database. l don't know either. We'd have to look at a specific example. Thanks.

Not happening until the scanning issues are resolved and I can scan the libraries relatively error free.

What scanning error?
