#Incorrect ratings shown on UI vs overlay after mass rating update?

I've noticed that after performing a mass critic and audience rating update, the ratings in my poster overlays are correct but the rating shown on Plex is wrong. My config for my movies library is as follows:

libraries:
  Films:
    metadata_path:
    - pmm: basic
    - pmm: imdb
    - pmm: studio

    overlay_path:
    - remove_overlays: false
    - pmm: ratings
      template_variables:
        # Global
        rating_alignment: horizontal
        vertical_position: bottom
        horizontal_position: center
        addon_position: left

        # IMDB
        rating1: critic
        rating1_image: imdb

        # Rotten Tomatoes (Audience)
        rating2: audience
        rating2_image: rt_popcorn
    operations:
      mass_critic_rating_update: imdb
      mass_audience_rating_update: mdb_tomatoesaudience

So as I understand it, the critic rating should be IMDB and the audience rating should be the audience rating from Rotten Tomatoes. And this is correct on the poster overlay, but it seems like the Plex UI shows the audience rating with the IMDB logo? Also, on my Apple TV the rating is shown as 59% which would be correct for IMDB but there is only a star next to the rating rather than the IMDB logo. I can fix this by using https://github.com/mynttt/UpdateTool to update the IMDB ratings and that causes everything to display correctly including changing the star to the IMDB logo on the Apple TV. Is there something wrong with my config that I'm missing or this a bug in PMM?

PMM Is just sticking numbers into the database. Plex doesn't know where those numbers come from, so what gets displayed in the Plex UI will almost certainly no longer be accurate.

#

PMM has nothing to do with how various Plex apps display the ratings.

In the specific case above:

    operations:
      mass_critic_rating_update: imdb
      mass_audience_rating_update: mdb_tomatoesaudience

You're putting the imdb rating [5.9] into the "critic" box and the RT audience rating [50%] into the "audience" box.

You've told Plex to use IMDB ratings, which do not have a "critic" rating, so it's displaying the "audience" rating value next to the IMDB icon.

You just changed the audience rating to 50% with that operation above; Plex has no idea that happened behind its back, so it dutifully pulls the audience rating value of "50" and displays it as 5.0.

It looks like the AppleTV is displaying the critic rating in it's UI, formatting it as a percentage instead of 5.9 as it presumably would were it displaying something it thought was an IMDB rating. No idea what's driving that decision, but it's not controlled by PMM.
