i have tried to remove the metadata folder for tvshows and refresh metadata. i have tried to use the mass_poster_update operation. It isnt coming back. TIA for any advice

#

i think the problem is when i tried to use tcm to add episode name and then saw it removed the runtime overlay from pmm. then i tried to use pmm again and all hell broke loose

What’d you run?

#

i whole heartedly believe this has nothing to do with pmm.

#

i think im my panic state i was trying all kinds of stuff. do you think i need the plex dance?

#

i think tcm told plex to use posters from its folder and now that i have removed tcm it isnt showing anything. even though there are other options available.

#

#

i really didnt want to as i hear its a lengthy and pita process

#

could you tell me how i messed this up because that is what i wanted to accomplish the whole time anyways.

Plex Dance

The purpose of this is to remove all cached metadata and xml data for an item that Plex usually keeps. This helps when you want to “start from scratch” for particular items.

Before doing the plex dance, it is strongly recommended to stop prowlarr, tdarr, lidarr, sonarr, and radarr.

:one: Move the folders/files for the media to a location not scanned by Plex.
:two: Click the three dots next to the server name, or library name for just one library, on the left sidebar and click the "Scan Library Files".
:three: Click the same three dots > "Manage Library" > "Empty Trash".
:four: If applicable, click "More > " at the bottom of the sidebar and click the three dots next to the server name > "Manage Server" > "Clean Bundles".
:five: Move the folders/files back to your media folder.
:six: Click the three dots on the server or library and click the "Scan Library Files" again.

Once finished all of your plex dancing, it is recommended to:
Optimize DB

NOTE When performing a full library plex dance, create a "fakedir" in the folder with 0 media in it. At the end of the plex dance, you can remove those "fakedir" directories.

If you stopped tdarr, sonarr, radarr, lidarr, and prowlarr before starting the plex dance, you can restart them now.

Thanks for using Plex Meta Manager!
