Unless @jmarshall can suggest anything? I really haven't looked at how the scanner works, but it would be nice if there was a JSON method to force a re-scrape of media, rather than have the scraper do nothing because it doesn't believe there is anything wrong, or that requires updating.Maybe you could use VideoLibrary.RemoveMovie first (or VideoLibrary.RemoveTVShow, VideoLibrary.RemoveTVShow, VideoLibrary.RemoveEpisode, etc.) and then call for a source scan.
After source refresh is done you could even check the new info against the old one and restore fields as needed.
