Add "Remove Identification" (the same way media has) for People

[Lyfesaver 143]

Right now I can't just "Remove identification" from a person in Emby the way you can for TV, Movies, etc. For instance, actor/director Kevin Smith never played cornerback for the Cowboys in the 90s

Hi, the server doesn't attempt to do name based lookups for people, so it's probably best to look at where that came from in the first place.

I am not sure I understand what you mean? Kevin Smith was a cornerback for the Cowboys in the 90s and he is not the same actor/director Kevin Smith seen in the image. My NFO file has him as an "actor" (seen below)

And Emby is matching/identifying him as the actor/director, not me or my NFO file. It has to be Emby doing name based lookups, what else could be doing it?

I suppose it could be a plugin I have, but I am unable to identify which one it might be. Might you be able to point it out?

What makes you think Emby is doing that?

Because I really cant think of what else it could be. I mean, the only players here are Emby and the plugins. My NFO files cant dictate which person to match it to, right?

The NFO file you showed above has the Director Kevin Smith's tmdb etc. IDs in it...

Yeah, its really amazing sometimes how our brains just decide to ignore things right in front of us.  Happens to me all the time.  No worries.

Yea but it's more a question of how it got there.

I can only thing of one way it got there: 

I did not check all 400+ NFO files and the ones I did, I likely did not pay attn to levels of detail like that

What created them?

Sorry, really not trying to be a jerk but I don't know how I can explain it better than my pervious post where I linked the specific steps on how the NFOs were created. If you can let me know where you are confused I can try and and answer more directly. Again, seriously... not trying to be a jerk but maybe I am not understanding what you are asking for (more than likely it is my lack of understanding that is the issue here, lol).
