Emby for QNAP - Where is People info stored?

[MrAudio 22]

I recently moved to a QNAP TS-543A to get Emby off of my main (Windows) PC where I've run it for years. I migrated my old metadata (formerly ImagesByName) over and pointed Emby to it, and my People pics are showing up. So far, so good.

 

But I noticed that there were some occasional People errors - the wrong person being displayed with a movie. Often it seems to happen for people with a single name (such as Madonna or Cher) but occasionally with others. I could manually correct the data from within Emby, but doing some investigation, I discovered that the actual metadata isn't being saved into the People directories with their photos. In fact, I cannot locate where this data is being stored (or figure out why it wouldn't be in the individual People directories). Many of my People folders have 
"person.xml" files, which may come from MetaBrowser (which I've also used for many years), but those clearly aren't being read. My real concern is that I don't seem to have any straightforward way to get at the data from outside Emby, which is often far easier to make corrections.

 

So, the questions are:

 

• Where does the People metadata get stored?
• Why doesn't it get stored in the People folders?
• Is it encoded, or is it stored in easily editable files?

Thanks for any help.

the wrong person being displayed with a movie

For this you want to look at the cast list for the movie in question.

[MrAudio 22]

Right. But where is the actual data stored? That's the critical information I'm looking for.

What information exactly? the cast list for a movie, or the bio data for an individual person?

[MrAudio 22]

The bio data.

That is in the emby library database, specifically library.db.
