My friends kept watching movies in low quality for no reason, which kept making my small CPU hurt, which kept making me annoyed... So, I decided to code a "Transcoding Police" Telegram bot which exposes criminals as soon as it detects someone is watching with transcoding. Problem solved! (:
Oh, and here is the source code. It uses jensenkd/plex-api, with a few edits to the models I needed to use, as they were broken.

Way to suggest critic rating updates??
I use UpdateTool to update the IMDb ratings daily and set the badges where they are missing.

Is there any way to show IMDb ratings here insted of Rotten tomatoes? I've tried googling but couldn't find a definitive answer.
I have IMDB Ratings on my TV Shows. You can do it with UpdateTool. But you must pay for TVDB API.

Why does Plex Movie agent matches the wrong Rotten Tomatoes entry for Ghibli movies ? It just randomly fixes every now and then and breaks again. Examples in images. Top is from RT, bottom is from watch.plex.tv. My matches are correct. Is there a way to enforce the Rotten Tomatoes entry? Thanks !
Because of this I started using Myntt's Updatetool some years back, which updates my IMDb ratings daily. You can also use Plex Meta Manager to update other ratings such as RT using the mass ratings update operation
- How do you get IMDB as a rating in plex?
- Does ANYBODY like having TMDB reviews for individual episodes of TV given how few people rate them?

Best primary source for movie ratings (IMDb, Rotten Tomatoes, TMDB)?
IMDb all the way. Especially when paired with mynttt/UpdateTool, you can get fresh ratings constantly. I update mine every 12hrs.

IMDb.com and Plex have different ratings
I use this on my server https://github.com/mynttt/UpdateTool It updates every 12 hours

Reason #1001 for using Plex Meta Manager: You can now overlay ratings on your posters!
The mdblist api key should be included farther down your config.yml. More info here More info on overlays here I also recommend sporadically using UpdateTool to update the IMDb ratings of your library, as they can change quite a bit. Especially on recent movies.
