Need ability to fix match on recorded movies

Friday the 13th is the wrong version the version that recorded is the remake ... not the original ... but the metadata says the original ..... So the original if it airs will never record.

That would be nice. I occasionally have a need to do that with recordings.
Pretty sure if you edit the metadata on the recording, it still won't help.
What I do is mark it as not recorded (so it will record again), rename the recorded file and move it to imports to import the correct version (2009), then trash the incorrect recording in Channels to remove it from its database.

Cool, so it works on movies too!

@bnhf, should the title of that OliveTin action be modified to indicate it works on any recording or import, not just TV episodes?

Indeed it should. Would "Mark a Show for Re-Recording" be better? Or, I think there's room for "Mark a Movie or Episode for Re-Recording", if that's more appealing?

"Mark a Recording for Re-Recording" or "Mark a Movie or Episode for Re-Recording" make the most sense to me...

Okey-dokey, this change in Action name is included in :latest and :2024-10-27. I also tweaked the description for the field, since getting the File ID for a movie is found following a slightly different menu path:
