I totally re-ripped my library at the end of 2017 I think it was. Then I did a bunch of checking on my existing library and I came away pretty stunned. At first, I was convinced that Plex just couldn't read tags at all. I wish I could say with some authority what the exact problem is. Anybody else tried this with Plex? Am I barking up the wrong tree for music on Plex? Not much in the way of fixes coming out from Plex. The forums for Plex are repleat with people saying pretty terrible things about the same topic. I would be interested in the experiences with Plex and music tagging of others. It manages to get nearly everything wrong (with ID3 tags) and does it in a pattern I have yet to discern. I wish I could say "here's the problem.", but, there's so many problems with Plex and music tags that it would be hard to say. My experience with music and tagging has been nothing short of awful with Plex. My experience with Plex and movies has been without incident: it all works and the metadata is handled well. The Plex pass promises "music fingerprinting" where they sample the tunes and provide the metadata based on an internet database.

Your comments on Plex handing meta data on music couldn't be further from my experience this week. So I also loaded Plex since it will run native on the NAS and cover all my in home devices and players. I am experimenting with leaving iTunes and looking for a music manager with a future (iTunes being at end of life). I too have a Synology NAS unit where I put all my music files.
