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.

PMM Defaults

Plex Meta Manager provides a set of pre-made Metadata and Overlay files, allowing you to get the most commonly-used collections and overlays without having to manually set them up yourself.

You can learn more about them here
basically:

libraries:
  Movies:
    metadata_path:
    - pmm: actor
    - pmm: genre
    overlay_path:
    - remove_overlays: false
    - pmm: ribbon
    - pmm: ratings

and so on.

They offer a degree of customization. That customization mechanism is described at the link.

If you ALSO want to use your local My-Movies.yml, you can add it to the config like this:

libraries:
  Movies:
    metadata_path:
    - file: config/My-Movies.yml
    - pmm: actor
    - pmm: genre
    overlay_path:
    - remove_overlays: false
    - pmm: ribbon
    - pmm: ratings

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 keep these branches stable and prevent bugs from reaching the wider user-base.

sorry not understanding

#

📎 overlays_1.yml

pliant mantle Dec 14, 2022, 5:12 AM

#

In your log, when PMM tries to process overlays:

[CRITICAL] | Invalid URL 'None/Awards-Ratings-Designations/images/IMDB_Ratingred.png': No scheme supplied. Perhaps you meant http://None/Awards-Ratings-Designations/images/IMDB_Ratingred.png?

That kills overlays processing for the Movies library.

Same error kills them in TV.

I would suggest starting smaller and getting one to apply then adding more rather than starting with a long broken file.

okay

severe ridge Dec 14, 2022, 5:42 AM

#

so just start with this first
libraries:
Movies:
metadata_path:
- file: config/My-Movies.yml
- pmm: actor
- pmm: genre
overlay_path:
- remove_overlays: false
- pmm: ribbon
- pmm: ratings

I was more thinking orfthat custom file of your own but yes, I would encourage you to do as much as you can with the defaults rather than writing your own metadata files until you understand how to do so, if that turns out to be required.

severe ridge Dec 14, 2022, 5:45 AM

#

would I be able to add to this at anytime or will I have to remove once I write my own metadta files

pliant mantle Dec 14, 2022, 5:47 AM

#

You can use default files alongside metadata files of your own; you'll want to pick one or the other if they are doing the same things [for example if you write your own metadata files to create genre collections is whatever different way you want to remove the default genre line].

severe ridge Dec 14, 2022, 5:47 AM

#

it created overlay folder and files

pliant mantle Dec 14, 2022, 5:48 AM

#

Yes, I would expect that.

severe ridge Dec 14, 2022, 5:48 AM

#

so would I need to remove the folder to avoid from getting an error

indigo fog Dec 14, 2022, 8:13 AM

#

No

#

PMM stores the original poster so that it has something to restore if you ever want to remove your overlays
