Trying to use multiple filters for a collection, i tried listing as shown, tired commas after each and also comma with all on the same line. As it's shown for whatever reason, it only pulls in two movies. Could someone tell me what i am doing wrong?

    plex_all: true
    filters:
      actor: Quentin Tarantino
      director: Quentin Tarantino
      producer: Quentin Tarantino
      writer: Quentin Tarantino
    sort_title: Quentin Tarantino
    collection_order: release

Please complete #938455615741775902 and someone from the community or one of our <@&938443185347244033> members will respond when they're available.

Including the meta.log from the beginning is a huge help use !logs for more information.

Providing Log Files

You have been asked to provide your log file, which will allow us to support you further.

You can find your meta.log file within the logs folder of your Plex Meta Manager config folder (typically the logs folder is in the same directory as your config.yml file).

Drag-and-drop your meta.log file directly into the Discord support thread. If the file is larger than 50mb, we suggest zipping it or uploading it to another file-sharing website.

Please DO NOT manually extract, copy and paste text from your log files directly into Discord as the formatting can be difficult to read and can often redact parts of the log file that are important for full context.

Using Code Blocks

Please use code blocks when sending any code-related text (such as error messages or configuration file extracts.)

The Grave Accent key (`) is used to define code blocks and is typically found to the left of the number 1 key on a standard keyboard.

See the below sample text and output for basic code block text.

YOU TYPE THIS

`​`​`hello`​`​`

DISCORD DISPLAYS
hello

If you are posting any yaml-formatted text (such as collections), you can give your code block YAML formatting. See the below sample text and output

YOU TYPE THIS

`​`​`yaml
collections:
  Documentaries:
    smart_filter:
      all:
        genre: Documentary
`​`​`

DISCORD DISPLAYS

collections:
  Documentaries:
    smart_filter:
      all:
        genre: Documentary

this would be a AND search, meaning it has to match ALL of those 4 criteria, so of course you will not get a lot matches with this

Quentin Tarantino:
  plex_all: true
    filters:
      actor: Quentin Tarantino
      director: Quentin Tarantino
      producer: Quentin Tarantino
      writer: Quentin Tarantino

this would be a ANY search, meaning if any movie matches just 1 criteria it will get added

Quentin Tarantino:
  plex_all: true
    filters:
      - actor: Quentin Tarantino
      - director: Quentin Tarantino
      - producer: Quentin Tarantino
      - writer: Quentin Tarantino

in the case of tarantino you could make it simpler by just using tmdb_crew instead:

Quentin Tarantino:
  tmdb_crew: 138

and as it just happens to be, this is also the example used on the wiki
https://metamanager.wiki/en/nightly/metadata/builders/tmdb.html#tmdb-crew

thank you, i'll try with the - i didnt realize with it that it meant it had to match all of those. i did try with the tmb_crew: 138 which worked, but it didnt seem i could use a custom file poster with that as it pulled down the tmdb one instead of the one i wanted to use.

#

I'll give this a go - thanks again.

should be fine to combine tmdb_crew with url_poster or file_poster to use any poster you want

i'll try tmdb again. It overwrote the poster i had in place with a total different picture.

tmdb_crew doesnt update the poster by itself something else you ran did that
