# Default Collections & Overlays
|
|
|
|
Plex Meta Manager includes a pre-created set of Metadata Files and Overlay Files which can be found in the "defaults" folder in the root of your Plex Meta Manager installation directory.
|
|
|
|
These files offer an easy-to-use and customizable set of Collections and Overlays that the user can achieve without having to worry about creating the files that makes the collections and overlays possible.
|
|
|
|
All Collections come with a matching poster to make a clean, consistent set of collections in your library. These files are stored in the [Plex Meta Manager Images](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager-Images) Repository and each poster is downloaded straight to your Plex Collection when you run Plex Meta Manager.
|
|
|
|
It should be noted that users running the on [nightly branch](https://metamanager.wiki/en/nightly/home/kb.html#how-do-i-switch-to-the-nightly-branch) of Plex Meta Manager will receive all updates to the PMM Defaults as soon as they are published via [GitHub](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager-Configs/tree/master/PMM), which may at times involve bugs or implementations that need to be further addressed. Users of the [develop](https://metamanager.wiki/en/nightly/home/kb.html#how-do-i-switch-to-the-develop-branch) and [master](https://metamanager.wiki/en/nightly/home/kb.html#how-do-i-switch-back-to-the-master-branch) branches will only receive updated Defaults files when an update to Plex Meta Manager is released - this helps to protect to keep these branches stable and prevent bugs from reaching the wider user-base.
|
|

|
Credits to Bullmoose20 and Yozora for helping drive this entire Default Set of Configs through the concept, design and implementation.

|
## Configurations
|
|
|
|
To run a file in git you can simply add it to your `metadata_path` (For Metadata Files) or `overlay_path` (For Overlay Files) using `git` like so:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
libraries:
|
|
Movies:
|
|
metadata_path:
|
|
- pmm: actor
|
|
- pmm: genre
|
|
overlay_path:
|
|
- remove_overlays: false
|
|
- pmm: ribbon
|
|
- pmm: ratings
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Overlays
|
|
|
|
The default set of overlays are a combination of Positional Overlays and Text Overlays.
|
|

## Separators
|
|
|
|
By default, most metadata files use separators to denote different sections of collection like actor collections vs studio collections.
|
|
|
|

|
|
<summary>Click to expand to see an example of Separators.</summary>
|
|
|
|
![](images/separators.jpg)
|
|
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
* Can be turned off by [customizing your config](#customizing-configs)
|
|
|
|
## Collection Section Order
|
|
|
|
Almost every default metadata file has a `collection_section` attribute. These attributes determine the order of the various sections and can be set by [customizing your config](#customizing-configs).
|
|
|
|
For example: `collection_section: 01` translates to `sort_title: "!<<collection_section>><<pre>><<order_<<key>>>><<sort>>"` and so for `genre.yml` if you have a `Fantasy` collection, plex is going to show `!06_Fantasy`
|
|
|
|
This is the default PMM collection ordering:
|
|
|
|
| Collection | Collection Section |
|
|
|:----------------------------------|:------------------:|

|
| `seasonal.yml` | `00` |
|

|

|
## Rating Overlays
|
|
|
|
By default for Movies in Plex, the `Ratings Source` dropdown (`#3`) below, can come from Rotten Tomatoes (and includes Critic Ratings and Audience Ratings) or IMDb (Audience Ratings). This only changes the tiny icons displayed and where Plex will retrieve the ratings from upon initial scan and import of the media metadata.
|
|
|
|
**Plex Meta Manager can insert up to three ratings of your choice into the three spots regardless of what you choose in the `Advanced` tab of that Plex library**
|
|
|
|
![](images/ratings_source.png)
|
|
|
|
Plex has three available spots in the Plex DB to store ratings and thus Plex Meta Manager can be used to insert ratings sources of your choice into those spots. They are known as the User Rating (`#1`), Critic Rating (`#2`), and Audience Rating (`#3`).
|
|
|
|
**Note that the little icons cannot be changed and that the numbers next to the little icons are reflected in the poster ratings overlay**
|
|
|
|
![](images/ratings_spot.png)
|
|
|
|
To be able to insert the ratings you want, Plex Meta Manager operations need to be defined. In this example below, User ratings (`#1`) are being filled with Rotten Tomatoes Critics Ratings. Critic ratings (`#2`) are filled with IMDb, and Audience ratings (`#3`) are filled with TMDb.
|
|
|
|
**mass_*_rating_update** sources can be found here: [operations](../../config/operations)
|
|
|
|
![](images/ratings_operations.png)
|
|
|
|
Finally, to show the ratings on the poster, the following was added to the `overlay_path` section in the `config.yml` file to post Rotten Tomatoes Critics Ratings in (`#1`), IMDb ratings in (`#2`), and TMDb ratings in (`#3`)
|
|
|
|
![](images/ratings_overlay_path.png)
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Customizing Configs
|
|
|
|
Configs can be customized using the `template_variables` attribute when calling the file. These `template_variables` will be given to every template call in the file which allows them to affect how that file runs.
|
|
|
|
This example changes the ratings overlay to work on episodes.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
libraries:
|
|
TV Shows:
|
|
overlay_path:
|
|
- pmm: ratings
|
|
template_variables:
|
|
overlay_level: episode
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Each file has a comment block at the top showing the available `template_variables` for each file. For example the [`pmm: genre`](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager-Configs/blob/master/PMM/genre.yml) has this:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
#############################################################
|
|
# Dynamic Genre Collections #
|
|
# Created by Yozora, Bullmoose20, & Sohjiro #
|
|
#############################################################
|
|
# Call this from your config.yml (Movie or Show) #
|
|
# If nothing is specified these are the defaults #
|
|
# #
|
|
# metadata_path: #
|
|
# - pmm: genre #
|
|
# template_variables: #
|
|
# # Turn the separator collection on/off #
|
|
# use_separator: true #
|
|
# # Sets how the collection is sorted #
|
|
# sort_by: release.desc #
|
|
# # Sets the collection mode of the collection #
|
|
# collection_mode: #
|
|
# # Sets the value at the start of the sort title #
|
|
# collection_section: "06" #
|
|
#############################################################
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Each of these when passed will change how the collection runs slightly.
|
|
* `use_separator` Turn the separator collection on/off
|
|
* `sort_by` Sets how the collection is sorted
|
|
* `collection_mode` Sets the collection mode of the collection
|
|
* `collection_section` Sets the value at the start of the sort title
|
|
|
|
**In addition to the defined `template_variables` each file in the PMM Folder has access to the `radarr_add_missing` and `sonarr_add_missing` template variables and for dynamic collections most attributes can be passed as template variables**
|
|
|
|
For example if you want yearly oscar collections that go back 10 years instead of 5 all of which gets sent to radarr use the `data` and `radarr_add_missing` template variables.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
libraries:
|
|
Movies:
|
|
metadata_path:
|
|
- pmm: oscars
|
|
template_variables:
|
|
radarr_add_missing: true
|
|
data:
|
|
starting: current_year-10
|
|
ending: current_year
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or maybe you want to change the number of actor collections made using pmm: actor.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
libraries:
|
|
Movies:
|
|
overlay_path:
|
|
- pmm: actor
|
|
template_variables:
|
|
collection_mode: hide
|
|
data:
|
|
depth: 5
|
|
limit: 50
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or maybe you want to change the collection sort order of the genre collections using pmm: genre.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
libraries:
|
|
Movies:
|
|
metadata_path:
|
|
- pmm: genre
|
|
template_variables:
|
|
collection_section: 11
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or maybe you want to disable separators globally per library.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
libraries:
|
|
LIBRARYNAME:
|
|
template_variables:
|
|
use_separator: false
|
|
metadata_path:
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternatively it can be turned off individually per git file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
libraries:
|
|
LIBRARYNAME:
|
|
metadata_path:
|
|
- pmm: <file1> # separator is disabled
|
|
template_variables:
|
|
use_separator: false
|
|
- pmm: <file2> # separator is enabled by default
|
|
- pmm: <file3> # separator is disabled
|
|
template_variables:
|
|
use_separator: false
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Errors
|
|
|
|
If there are collections being made that have configuration errors or missing posters please either bring it up in our Discord or raise an Issue on the [Configs Repo](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager-Configs/issues/new/choose).
