Collections metadata missing

[Ockingshay 3]

Why have the autogenerated collections been created but the metadata is missing? It’s automatically grouped the movies together but I have to individually click on each collection to refresh metadata for it to show the enriched info.

This is a brand new system and my first movie folder added. Before I add more I want to make sure it’s working correctly.

is there a way to bulk refresh all the collection’s metadata, rather than per item , as there’s loads of them?

Multi-select desired collections (hover over poster top-left corner): select/click first desired collection, scroll down for all the items to load (they load in 50-ish item chunks), select/shift-click last desired collection, three-dot menu top-right of the screen>Refresh Metadata

HI, it could be that they are still in process of fetching metadata in the background.
