Plex Meta Manager

The original concept for Plex Meta Manager is Plex Auto Collections, but this is rewritten from the ground up to be able to include a scheduler, metadata edits, multiple libraries, and logging. Plex Meta Manager is a Python 3 script that can be continuously run using YAML configuration files to update on a schedule the metadata of the movies, shows, and collections in your libraries as well as automatically build collections based on various methods all detailed in the wiki. Some collection examples that the script can automatically build and update daily include Plex Based Searches like actor, genre, or studio collections or Collections based on TMDb, IMDb, Trakt, TVDb, AniDB, or MyAnimeList lists and various other services.

The script can update many metadata fields for movies, shows, collections, seasons, and episodes and can act as a backup if your plex DB goes down. It can even update metadata the plex UI can't like Season Names. If the time is put into the metadata configuration file you can have a way to recreate your library and all its metadata changes with the click of a button.

The script works with most Metadata agents including the new Plex Movie Agent, New Plex TV Agent, Hama Anime Agent, and MyAnimeList Anime Agent.

Getting Started

  1. Install Plex Meta Manager either by installing Python3 and following the Local Installation Guide or by installing Docker and following the Docker Installation Guide or the unRAID Installation Guide.
  2. Once installed, you have to create a Configuration File filled with all your values to connect to the various services.
  3. After that you can start updating Metadata and building automatic Collections by creating a Metadata File for each Library you want to interact with.
  4. Explore the Wiki to see all the different Collection Builders that can be used to create collections.
