# Default Metadata & Overlays Files
There is a default set of Metadata and Overlay Files located in the [PMM Folder](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager-Configs/tree/master/PMM) in the [Plex Meta Manager Configs](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager-Configs) Repository.
The intention of this directory is to offer easy to use and slightly customizable (using [`template_variables`](../../config/paths.md#template-variables)) Metadata and Overlay Files for a general user who wants nice collections but doesn't want to learn all of Plex Meta Manager.
All posters defined in the Metadata Files are stored in the [Plex Meta Manager Images](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager-Images) Repository and all Overlay images are in the [Configs](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager-Configs) Repository at [PMM/overlays/images](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager-Configs/tree/master/PMM/overlays/images), which allows for changes to be made in one central location that will deploy to all users of this setup when they next run PMM.
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.
## 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:
- git: PMM/actor
- git: PMM/genre
overlay_path:
- remove_overlays: false
- git: PMM/overlays/imdb_top_250
- git: PMM/overlays/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.
<details>
<summary>Click to expand to see an example of Separators.</summary>
![](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 | Order |
|:-------------------------------------|------------------------|
| `PMM/movie/seasonal.yml` | collection_section: 00 |
| `PMM/chart/anilist.yml` | collection_section: 01 |
| `PMM/chart/basic.yml` | collection_section: 01 |
| `PMM/chart/imdb.yml` | collection_section: 01 |

| `PMM/streaming.yml` | collection_section: 03 |
| `PMM/show/network.yml` | collection_section: 04 |
| `PMM/genre.yml` | collection_section: 06 |
| `PMM/studio.yml` | collection_section: 07 |
| `PMM/movie/country.yml` | collection_section: 09 |
| `PMM/show/country.yml` | collection_section: 09 |
| `PMM/audio_language.yml` | collection_section: 10 |

| `PMM/movie/decade.yml` | collection_section: 12 |

## Ratings 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**
![](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**
![](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)
![](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`)
![](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:
- git: PMM/overlays/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: #
# - git: 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:
- git: PMM/award/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:
- git: 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:
- git: 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:
- git: PMM/<file1> # separator is disabled
template_variables:
use_separator: false
- git: PMM/<file2> # separator is enabled by default
- git: 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).
