Not sure if I'm going crazy but I don't see one 😕. Or do you just mean to submit mine? |

@owendaprile I never hit submit 😅 oops |
Some items on Plex store the MBID in the `guid` field in the `Metadata` response, not in the `Guid` field. This change checks the `guid` field as a fallback if the `Guid` field is not set.

Describe your changes
Some items on Plex store the MBID in the
guidfield in theMetadataresponse, not in theGuidfield. This change checks theguidfield as a fallback if theGuidfield is not set.This seems to be very rare. I've only found it on one release in my library and it fixed itself after clicking "Fix Match..." and matching it again.
Example of an item with the MBID in `guid`
