IMPORTANT:
This walkthrough is assuming you are doing the entire process on the same platform; i.e. you're installing PMM and editing its config files on a single Linux, Windows, or OS X machine. It doesn't account for situations like running PMM on a Linux machine while editing the config files on your Windows box.
### Prepare a small test library
### Prepare a small test library [optional]
While going through this process, Plex-Meta-Manager is going to load the movies in your library, create some collections, and apply some overlays. If you have a large library, this will be very time-consuming.
For learning and testing, you would be well-advised to create a small test library of a reasonable size, where reasonable it probably below a thousand.
The author has a small library of 10 movies that is used for fast tests.
For best results, your test library will contain:
At least two comedy movies released since 2012.
At least two movies from the IMDB top 250.
At least two movies from IMDB's Popular list.
At least two movies from IMDB's Lowest Rated.
A couple different resolutions among the movies.
That will ensure there's something to go into each of the example collections that will be created.

Go to http://www.python.org/download and download the next-to-latest minor version of Python for Windows in 32 or 64-bit as appropriate for your system [probably 64-bit]. As this is written, that's 3.10, while the latest is 3.11.
#### Why the next-to-latest?
There is one dependency [`lxml`] that lags behind new Python releases; this will cause a failure when installing requirements in a moment if the newest Python version is too new [at time of writing the current is 3.11, and the requirements install fails on the lxml library]. You can avoid this by using the next-to-latest release. At some point this will no longer be a problem, but that is outside the control of PMM.
Once downloaded, run the installer. Tick “Add to path” checkbox at the bottom and click “Install Now”.

You've hit the error we were referring to above with the Python version being too recent. Probably you are running Python 3.11 in late 2022 or Python 3.12 shortly after its release. Deactivate and delete the virtual environment and create one based on the previous Python release [which may involve removing Python and reinstalling the older version depending on platform], then try this step again.

In addition, individual items *within* the configuration can be scheduled to take place at certain times *provided PMM is running at that time*.

This sort of schedule *will not* make PMM start up if it is not already running. If you don't arrange for PMM to be run on Tuesday, your overlays would never be processed in this example.

### Prepare a small test library [optional]

For best results with this walkthrough, your test library will contain:
- At least two comedy movies released since 2012.
- At least two movies from the [IMDB top 250](https://www.imdb.com/chart/top/).
- At least two movies from [IMDB's Popular list](https://www.imdb.com/chart/moviemeter).
- At least two movies from [IMDB's Lowest Rated](https://www.imdb.com/chart/bottom).
- A couple different resolutions among the movies.
That will ensure there's something to go into each of the example collections that will be created.
The advantage of the small test library is that it will reduce the time needed to see results. Running some of these default collections against a library of a few thousand movies can take hours, and for iterative testing it's useful to have something that will run in a few minutes or seconds.
You can set up a test library like this using symlinks without copying files.
