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 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 of Plex Meta Manager will receive all updates to the PMM Defaults as soon as they are published via GitHub, which may at times involve bugs or implementations that need to be further addressed. Users of the develop and master 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.
Special thanks to Magic815 for the overlay image inspiration and base template.

Separators
By default, most metadata files use separators to denote different sections of collection like actor collections vs studio collections.
Click to expand to see an example of Separators.
- Can be turned off by customizing your config
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.
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 |

anilist.yml |
01 |

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
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
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
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)
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.
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 has this:
#############################################################
# 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](../separators) 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_separatorTurn the Separator Collection on/offsort_bySets how the collection is sortedcollection_modeSets the collection mode of the collectioncollection_sectionSets 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.
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.
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.
libraries:
Movies:
metadata_path:
- pmm: genre
template_variables:
collection_section: 11
Or maybe you want to disable separators globally per library.
libraries:
LIBRARYNAME:
template_variables:
use_separator: false
metadata_path:
Alternatively it can be turned off individually per git file:
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.
