I am on the latest Jellyfin v10.7.7
Install on debian.
here is how to test.

Version: 10.7.7
Operating System: Windows
Architecture: X64
Here is another example under TV series:
Tv series called "The Walkers"
Jellfin says it is "The Parkers"
Attempt 1:
Click Identify: Enter the id "397699" into TVDB field , it finds the correct title for the Walkers, it shows the correct image for The Walkers, select update with image. Then Jellyfin spins around and does what it has to do, No changes to Media Library in Jellyfin,
Still stays the same "The Parkers"
but when you look in Jellyfin Logs
[2021-10-23 17:16:11.252 +01:00] [INF] [23] Jellyfin.Api.Controllers.ItemLookupController: Setting provider id's to item 3609cb7c-2ff0-1352-0a27-4d8f82aa55fa-"The Parkers": "{"Tvdb":"397699"}"
Attempt 2:
Click Identify: Enter "The Walkers" into title name, Enter the id "397699" into TVDB field , it shows a list of titles to select from, select "The Walkers", it then shows the image for The Walkers with an option to update images, select update with image. Then Jellyfin spins around and does what it has to do, No changes to Media Library in Jellyfin,
Still stays the same "The Parkers"
but when you look in Jellyfin Logs
Setting provider id's to item 3609cb7c-2ff0-1352-0a27-4d8f82aa55fa-"The Parkers": "{"Tvdb":"397699"}"
So Jellyfin is ignoring what you enter, and deciding to put what it likes too.
Note
Folder name: The Walkers
File name: The Walkers S01E01
Note2> Have also tried the following
Folder name: The Walkers
File name: The Walkers (2020) S01E01

I have a similar problem. I added the anime "Monster" from 2004 into my library and Jellyfin automatically identified it as the show "Monster Farm". I then identified it as "Monster" from 2004 manually. After that, the episode description and show description was changed correctly, but the images of the cover stayed the same and also the name of the seasons.
Problems like this happen to me a lot. Another example would be adding "Fullmetal Alchemist (2003)" and it get's identified as "Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood", after identifying it myself the episode titles change but the cover art didn't change.
Restarting or deleting the cache folder doesn't help.
Edit: maybe this problem already has been fixed in https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/pull/6531 or https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/pull/5806?

Still an issue with 10.7.7, will wait for 10.8 release to report examples/logs. Feels like when having multiple information sources active, that some hardcoded order is used, and when the first one has anything, this takes precedence to the manual one.
@1337joe commented on GitHub (Feb 16, 2022):
#7078 should have fixed lingering metadata and images from mis-identification.
I'm not seeing the described behavior, but without the list of active plugins/metadata providers I can't be sure I'm testing against what was broken. Please do test it again on 10.8

I have just tested this on master. I could not reproduce this issue using the IMDb ID you provided in the report.
@srcrist commented on GitHub (Oct 19, 2023):
Closing this issue as presently fixed per comments. Most metadata matching issues are a matter of provider configuration. If anyone is still experiencing matching issues, please visit our support communities on the forums or the Matrix/Discord server for assistance.
