Changes will be overwritten during rescan? - lukass2000 - 2024-09-26

Hello,
I installed jellyfin on my Synology NAS, works great Smiling-face
When I manually adjust and change the metadata of movies in Jellyfin and then i click on "scan libraries" again, will then all manually adjusted content overwritten (for example, if I have changed cover images, or content descriptions,....)?

Or do manually adjusted things remain?

THANKSĀ Smiling-face

Regular update scans should not change metadata already set. If you select "Replace all metadata" from the drop down, it would undo any manual changes you've made.
