#How does PMM overlays work with TV shows?

When using overlays for movies and TV show episodes it picks the quality of the movie/episode and overlays it, that's pretty straight forward. However, let's say the quality of each episode is different, how does PMM determine what overlay to put on the season or show thumbnail?

It probably uses whatever logic Plex uses I imagine?

This one is a question that chazlarson may be able to answer and most definitely Sohjiro. There is a logic for shoe and season episode I believe where a calculation is done by PMM to decide what to do. For example, if you have 10 episodes season 1 of The Mandolorian, 5 are 720p and 5 are 1080p. What is placed on the season poster for resolution? If Season 2 has the same breakdown, what resolution is shown at the Show level?

I think this is the attribute which is used to control it

Default is 50%

#

and I assume the "higher" quality (i.e. 1080p vs 720p) would be applied in the situation of a 50/50 split

DId you mean somethign like this?

#

In my first try, 720p and 1080p images where merged in TV Show, season and episodes for this serie so i had to modify vertical offset in 1080p image and now it is moved down. The three images showed are the result with the correct offset

I think the solution here is to use weights

# 
templates:
  Resolution:
    optional:
      - overlay_level
      - use_<<opt1>>
    default:
      overlay: <<overlay_name>>
      horizontal_offset: 10
      horizontal_align: left # Resolution, Special Release and Audio will go left, Studio and Streaming will go center and Subtitle will go right
      vertical_align: top # Resolution and Special Release will go top, Audio, Studio, Streaming and Subtitle will go bottom
    collection_level: <<overlay_level>>
    overlay:
      name: <<overlay_name>>
      horizontal_offset: <<horizontal_offset>>
      horizontal_align: <<horizontal_align>>
      vertical_offset: <<vertical_offset>>
      vertical_align: <<vertical_align>>
      group: res
      weight: <<weight>>

overlays:

  1080P:
    template:
      - name: Resolution
        opt1: 1080p
        weight: 20
        vertical_offset: 125
    plex_search:
      any:
        resolution.regex: '(?i)1080|2k'

  720P:
    template:
      - name: Resolution
        opt1: 720p
        weight: 10
        vertical_offset: 10
    plex_search:
      any:
        resolution.regex: '(?i)720|hd'
#

unless you want both resolutions appearing that is

shy jungle
#

Yes, I want both resolutions appearing so didn´t use weights

#

I will provide logs in a few hours. I am not at home at the moment

plain gale
#

so do you have any issues?

shy jungle

No. It worked ok for me
