Cannot refresh metadata from outside of dashboard - jinsokage - 2024-02-20
Hello,
I'm not sure if this is normal, but I can't seem to refresh individual library metadata from outside of the dashboard (screen below)
![[Image: jf-ss.png]](https://i.ibb.co/fYC6CWg/jf-ss.png)
'Refresh queued' pops up, but nothing ever happens after that.
Currently, I can only refresh ALL of my libraries from the dashboard

Also, I currently have 1 movie that won't allow me to manually update the cover via the Identity feature. I input the IMDB id and select the cover I want, but it won't take. I clear cache and still the feature won't work for this 1 movie. The identity feature works for all of my other movies. Everything is labeled the same from what I can tell ( Movie Title - Year / Movie Title ).
Currently, running JF via docker container. I assume this isn't a uid/gid issue, since the functionality of these features is intermittent.
Any help or insight from someone who may have seen this issue and tackled it already would be great. Thanks

Do you have an image in the folder with the movie?

I can certainly get one. What am I looking for?
I assume the scan doesn't take place because after initiating the scan from a folder, going back to folder, refreshing browser, no changes take place. When I scan from the global dashboard setting, go back to folder and refresh browser, the updates take effect.
Your input is appreciated.
*Edit - Oh, I misunderstood. You're asking me about the 1 movie. Are you asking if I have like a .jpg or .png in the the actual movie folder? like along with a 'Subs' folder? If that's the question, then the answer is no. There is no image file inside of the movie folder.
