Supported Streaming Services

!!! important

As of Plex Meta Manager release 1.21, the keys associated with this Defaults file has changed.

If you are setting custom images, you will need to use `<<originals_key>>`

Streaming Service	Key	originals_key	Weight
Netflix	8	netflix	160
Prime Video	9	amazon	150
Disney+	337	disney	140
Max	1189	max	130
Crunchyroll	283	Crunchyroll	120
YouTube	188	youtube	110
Hulu	15	hulu	100
Paramount+	531	paramount	90
AppleTV	350	appletv	80
Peacock	387	peacock	70
Showtime	37	showtime	60
discovery+	510	discovery	58
Crave	230	crave	55
NOW	39	now	50
All 4	103	all4	40
britbox	151	britbox	30
BET+	1759	bet	20
hayu	223	hayu	10

Regional Variants

Some logic is applied to allow for regional streaming service lists to be available to users depending on where they are, as detailed below:

Region	Key	Description
any besides GB	all4, britbox, hayu, now	These overlays will not be used if the region is not uk as these streaming services are UK-focused
any besides CA	crave	These overlays will not be used if the region is not ca as these streaming services are Canada-focused
CA	max, showtime	These overlays will not be used if the region is ca as these streaming services are part of the Crave streaming service in Canada

Config

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

libraries:
  Movies:
    overlay_files:
      - pmm: streaming
  TV Shows:
    overlay_files:
      - pmm: streaming

Template Variables

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.

Note that the template_variables: section only needs to be used if you do want to actually change how the defaults work. Any value not specified will use its default value if it has one if not it's just ignored.

* **File-Specific Template Variables** are variables available specifically for this PMM Defaults file.

* **Overlay Template Variables** are additional variables shared across the PMM Overlay Defaults.

    1. Each default overlay has a `key` that when calling to effect a specific overlay you must replace `<<key>>` 
    with when calling.

???+ example "Example Template Variable Amendments"

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

```yaml
libraries:
  Movies:
    overlay_files:
      - pmm: streaming
        template_variables:
          originals_only: true
          use_peacock: false
          weight_netflix: 100
