Interest in a 'Remove/Wipe Metadata' option

biandnerdy · December 26, 2025, 10:07pm

I don’t know about others but I get videos misidentified just often enough to be annoying. Manually wiping out all the scraped metadata is a pain. It would be great to have an option to do this automagically. Not a prominent button or anything, maybe in the three dot menu on the scene detail page and additionally as an option for checked scenes in the scene gallery.

Would this be better as a plugin or an integrated feature?

feature request

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.** If you let a… scrapper write to the scene fields and the scene fields are completely wrong, it is a pain to manually update each field. Deleting all scenes is the only UI option. There is an ability to edit multiple scenes at once but not a way clear the Title, Studio Code, Date, Director, Details, and URL that can be overwritten by a scrapper identification task. **Describe the solution you'd like** Have a way to cleanup a scrapper's mistakes. - Option 1: Update the Edit Multiple Scenes modal to include an option to Remove Title, Studio Code, Date, Director, Details, and/or URL. - Option 2: Include a Purge Scene Metadata button under Tasks - Option 3: Include an option for the "Identifying all Scenes." task to create a backup of the database before the task starts **Describe alternatives you've considered** You can connect to the sqlite database to NULL out all fields. ```sql UPDATE scenes SET title = NULL, details = NULL, url = NULL, date = NULL, studio_id = NULL, code = NULL, director = NULL; ```

also should be moved to feature requests
