## Config

The below YAML in your config.yml will create the collections:

```yaml
libraries:
  Movies:
    collection_files:
      - pmm: aspect
  TV Shows:
    collection_files:
      - pmm: aspect
```

## Template Variable Default Values

Template Variables can be used to manipulate the file in various ways to slightly change how it works without having to make your own local copy.

This file contains a [Separator](../separators.md) so all [Shared Separator Variables](../separators.md#shared-separator-variables) are available as well.

### Example Template Variable Amendments

The below is an example config.yml extract with some Template Variables added in to change how the file works.

???+ tip

    Anywhere you see this icon:
   
    > :fontawesome-solid-circle-plus:
   
    That's a tooltip, you can press them to get more information.

```yaml
libraries:
  Movies:
    collection_files:
      - pmm: aspect
        template_variables:
          use_1.65: false #(1)!
          sep_style: plum #(2)!
```

1.  Do not create a "1.65 - Early Widescreen" collection
2.  Use the plum [Separator Style](../separators.md#separator-styles)
