Disable Online MetaData for Select Videos
We had to ultimately turn the feature off because while many videos were properly identified, there's a lot of educational content shared to schools through our Serviio server that were misidentified as movies through the imdb database causing lots of confusion.
I know it's possible to create a separate folder and disabling metadata on it, but when using Serviio in an environment with thousands of users, it adds complexity. Our folders are organized by classroom and building.
I'd recommend if a user can add a select prefix or phrase to the filename of a video file that tells Serviio NOT to attempt to do a metadata search, it would be sufficient. A graphical option or database isn't needed. For example, we know you can amend the filename of a movie with the imdb DB# (ex. tt24202384) to force Serviio to see it as this movie. Perhaps allowing a user to include a word or phrase within the filename to exclude Serviio from attempting to identify it would be the best way to do this. We can just then add this phrase to the filename of misidentified videos.
Thanks,
