I have enabled metadata in NzbDrone, and all metadata is being added. But some series do not show the metadata in Plex. Could someone please help?
Plex looks as if it does not like XBMC metadata. Since I migrated from SB, that is when the episode details, etc disappeared
drone geneates images compliant with later versions of XBMC (Frodo+), but the xml files are the same. Unless it doesn’t like something drone is doing with it, it should work.
For me, no xml is being downloaded. Only jpg and nfo
Just had this error pop up also?
app.js : 35749
TypeError: self.seasons is undefined
the nfo files contain xml.
What version do you see that in? Just a UI error, a refresh should fix it up.
Oh I see. Plex is not taking the info from the nfo.
NzbDrone Ver. 2.0.0.1236
Plex doesn’t read .nfo files by default. It pulls down its own information using its agents, generally from TheTVDB using the Plex Series Scanner agent.
If this information isn’t being populated, first check on your Plex server that the agents are loaded properly (Settings Icon|Server|Agents|TV Shows|TheTVDB) - you should see “TheTVDB, Local Media Assets (TV), [and any other agents you have installed]” listed there. (Don’t be confused by “Local Media Assets (TV)” - this agent doesn’t read local nfo/xml files as it might suggest, it reads metadata from the media files/filenames only.)
If there are no agents, restart your Plex server. It should rebuild them. If not, you may need to destroy your System.bundle and Frameworks.bundle (Google for how to do this) and then restart. Again, if it doesn’t work, I’ve see people need to reinstall Plex.
There is a Plex XBMC .nfo agent around, though it’s not particularly good in my experience. It’s much better to get Plex to download the data it requires itself.
