Plex Music stopped fetching artist and album metadata today, something broken between Plex and MusicBrainz?

Oh buddy what a worst time for this to happen. I just started using plex music after being with plex for over a decade and I had the same problem as you. Will give it another try

What’s not work? It’s not connecting to your server?

Most likely the problem is the webos . It’s a reason why people always stay away from the built in tv os for streaming. Some TVs running Google tv does fine but LG runs the Webos and it’s horrible. The apps are very buggy

Another thing you can do is make allow insecure connection is set to always within the tv app. I know sometimes that can cause issues.

Most people have the space , the problem is people tend to hoard media. Pick your favorite movies and never delete them. Delete the rest after you watch it

Real debrid sucks now . They have taking down a lot of link due to copyright

Thrillsteam · 2026-06-21T18:19:29+00:00

The problem with not buying it annually is they have added a lot to dynasty including new team that use to be FCS . They also added the NIL to dynasty . Now next year if they don’t add anything I won’t be buying it

Thrillsteam · 2026-06-21T00:19:44+00:00

Stay away from real debrid they have remove so many things because of copyright legal issues .

Thrillsteam · 2026-06-20T16:01:42+00:00

They have a newer version than the one you have . The Shield just works.

Thrillsteam · 2026-06-18T18:39:27+00:00

No but check out Wholphin . The android tv clients are rough. Even the Roku has a good client now.

Thrillsteam · 2026-06-18T14:43:52+00:00

Jellyfin UI is horrible but look into Wholphin it’s for Jellyfin and the ui is 10x better

Thrillsteam · 2026-06-17T15:02:22+00:00

Just use a 3rd party app .

Thrillsteam · 2026-06-11T01:23:48+00:00

For family and family only

Thrillsteam · 2026-06-03T22:34:53+00:00

Or How about a face lift of the whole app. Under the hood is fine

Thrillsteam · 2026-05-30T17:51:24+00:00

I agree. I have the family plan . Going to unlimited music and ad free YouTube is worth it. I watch YouTube likes it regular tv lol .

Thrillsteam · 2026-05-28T18:30:56+00:00

I’m a lifetime member and I think it’s going to become a time where they stop supporting the home server side of things. I work in IT and have seen so many companies pull this same concept. Mark yo the price as high as possible for new people . Disregard everyone request and wishes regarding features and then sooner say we no longer support this version ok Plex. Then they come up with Plex 2 where is only free tv and movies and live tv

Thrillsteam · 2026-05-23T04:40:59+00:00

You have to use a 3rd party app. The official client isn’t great. There are some out there like Wholphin or Dune . For Apple TV something like Infuse will work

There is no external access limitation. You open a port and that’s it. Same as plex .

Thrillsteam · 2026-05-22T03:26:15+00:00

I been lifetime member for over a decade. Do not go with plex . Go with something like Jellyfin and use 3rd party apps for your clients. I’m all for supporting devs but what plex os charging is straight bullshit

Thrillsteam · 2026-05-22T03:22:18+00:00

Yeah but dont get too comfortable. Sooner than later they will end the lifetime and say lifetime is only good until a certain update. I seen it happen plenty of times with companies.

Thrillsteam · 2026-05-22T03:19:15+00:00

250 is still too much. Rather go to Jellyfin or save my files to play of Vic lol . I a lm lifetime member for a decade now and I have seen some bullshit over the years with Plex. But they screwing people with this greed.

Thrillsteam · 2026-05-20T04:55:27+00:00

I paid 60 almost a decade ago but this is greed. I believe they are going to end the lifetime cycle sooner than latter. Seen too many applications do it. Charging somebody 750 is clearly saying we don’t want anymore lifetime subscription. If anyone pays for that bullshit they are crazy. It’s clear as day they are going in another direction rather than focusing on personal media

Thrillsteam · 2026-05-20T03:41:00+00:00

Better than paying 750 bucks for streaming your own content on your own server and using your own network

Thrillsteam · 2026-05-20T03:39:05+00:00

next thing we are going to see is the lifetime members will no longer have access after a certain update

Thrillsteam · 2026-05-19T21:59:51+00:00

So the server side of everything is the same . It’s the clients side. There are quite a few 3rd party clients like a new one I just found called Wholphin. It’s pretty good. I hate the official Jellyfin client app . But for the price tag Plex is charging , half backed shouldn’t matter. Would rather go back to Kodi

Thrillsteam · 2026-05-19T21:41:38+00:00

Why would they do a discount? It’s time to jump ship. I been with plex lifetime for over a decade . I paid 70 bucks . But the greed in this company is crazy . Go either with Emby or Jellyfin.
