However, if I happen to move the file, or (in the future) migrate my library, this will, once again be generated when I scan the library for new files. I have tried manually creating a local metadata file, but regardless of what I do, it still gets added to the Jellyfin metadata database file on first pull, even when the <plot> portion of the local metadata file is specified as blank.
    The metadata lock does not apply to blank metadata fields. It only locks fields that have something filled.

    Any piece of metadata that's left blank will be reobtained if possible on the next metadata scan.

    Is it possible to edit the metadata file and add something into it so that it thinks there is something there, but looks blank?

    Edit: Also do you know where this metadata is being pulled from? I can't for the life of me figure this out. I've already disabled all the metadata scraping options for everything: show, season, episode, etc.
