If you perform a straight copy, search for `(redacted)` as you will need to replace that with your own information. Search for `db_cache` which is for Plex and now available to set via PMM. I use 2048 MB (2GB) as my system has 168 GB of RAM. You will want to improve it from the default 40 MB that Plex sets. Maybe a good starting point if you have enough RAM is 1024 MB which is 1GB. +Take what you need from my config.yml.

Nothing is local other than the fonts which are included in this repo (fonts.zip). These fonts are the best match I could find per ratings site and the ratings overlays. Unzip the fonts into `config/metadata/overlays/fonts/` to use this config without modifications. -You can put the fonts elsewhere, but if you choose to do that, you will need to adjust the ratings section (rating1_font:, rating2_font:, rating3_font:) of the overlays within the config.yml file to point to the location you chose. +> [!WARNING] +> You can put the fonts elsewhere, but if you choose to do that, you will need to adjust the ratings section (rating1_font:, rating2_font:, rating3_font:) of the overlays within the config.yml file to point to the location you chose. ## Assets -I also prefer to have a copy of the local assets so that if I need to recover to the original posters, they are there. I use PlexPosterMaker.ps1 from FSCorrupt's repo to help with that: https://github.com/fscorrupt/Plex-Poster-Maker .

I also use PMM's assets in a folder structure as described in the wiki here: https://metamanager.wiki/en/latest/pmm/guides/assets/ Essentially, I prefer `tmdb` as a source and textless images all around with a fallback to English and then German(`["xx", "en", "de"]`). Then I apply a gradient of my choice (`bottom-up-fade.png` & `bottom-up-fade-background.png`), and font of my choice (`Comfortaa-Medium.ttf`) which happens to match the PMM defaults for Collections. The secrets to all of this are found in the `bullmoose20config.json` file found in the ppm subdirectory along with the font and the gradient files.
