Streaming Default Metadata File

The - pmm: streaming Metadata File is used to dynamically create collections based on the streaming Services that your media is available on.

Example Collections Created:

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

libraries:
  Movies:
    metadata_path:
      - pmm: streaming

Template Variables

Template Variables can be used to manipulate the file from the default settings which are provided.

Note that the templates_variables: section only needs to be used if you do NOT want to use the default settings.

As this file is more complex than others, a key system is used to control each collection that is created by the file. Each key refers to one streaming service and is used to control multiple template variables.

Below are the keys and what they refer to:

Key	streaming Service
all4	All 4
amazon	Prime Video
appletv	Apple TV+
bet	BET+
britbox	BritBox
disney	Disney+
hayu	hayu
hbomax	HBO Max
hulu	Hulu
netflix	Netflix
now	NOW
paramount	Paramount+
peacock	Peacock

Below are the available variables which can be used to customize the file. Note that any use of key within the variable should be replaced with the key from the above table (i.e. use_all4 instead of use_key, order_disney instead of order_key)

Variable	Usage	Default Value	Values
use_key	Turn the collection on/off	true	true or false
order_key	Determine collection order in its section	Alphabetical Order	Any number (i.e. 01 for order_disney to put Disney+ first in the list of streaming services)
collection_order_key	Determines collection order of the collection
visible_library_key	Set visible_library for the collection	false	true or false
visible_home_key	Set visible_home for the collection	false	true or false
visible_shared_key	Set visible_shared for the collection	false	true or false
sonarr_add_missing_key	Adds missing from the collection to sonarr	false	true or false
sonarr_folder_key	Sonarr Folder to add to		Folder to add missing items to
sonarr_tag_key	Sonarr Tag for added missing		Tag(s) to add to missing items
item_sonarr_tag_key	Sonarr Tag for existing items	false	Tag(s) to add to existing items
