'Fetch Metadata' starts from scratch, as if you had no NFO file. From the User Manual:
"Fetch Metadata
. . . If an NFO file exists, it will be replaced with the new information."
And later, in the Edit Metadata chapter:
"When you ‘Fetch Metadata’, the NFO file, if present, will be completely overwritten, and changes you made to the plot description, title, actors, etc., will be lost. When you ‘Update Selection’, certain elements are preserved:
1. Title
2. Sort Title
3. Original Title
4. Genres
5. Tagline
6. Set & Set Order"
What you want is one of the update options, depending on what you are trying to accomplish. Watched status is preserved during updates also, although that is not explicitly in the list. I will update the manual with that.
