Emby Misidentifying movies even after giving correct IMDB id


Recommended Posts

I am seeing more instances of Emby misidentifying movies in the first scan. Usually - when this happens, Removing id and rescanning or by giving correct imdb id - the library scan generally gets it right second time. But now, once movie is misidentified.. there is nothing I can do to remove the wrong movie info. The only option I have is to manually add everything and lock the meta data so it does not change. This is very cumbersome. I do not know if this problem is due to IMDB security upgrades or a basic problem with Emby library scanning. I am using emby server 4.9.5.0 and the current movie I am facing problem with is Pierre (1977) which somehow it identifies as Star Wars (1977).

What do you mean by that? There's Identify (ditto Remove Identification) dropdown selection present on any identifiable item.

Remove Identification - does not remove Movie poster image ( if that's already scanned). Other information is removed. But when I select "Identify" and put in the imdb id, it shows right movie in results - but when I select it - the final movie and meta data is from completely wrong movie. This has happened twice in last few days. Raising it here - so if others have also experienced it - they can report.

Post server log after doing that. 

Edit: What are your library enabled meta-downloaders and in what order?
