Hi!
I have setup a library using the following options:
4K Movies:
overlay_path:
- file: config/overlays-movies-4k.yml
- reapply_overlays: false
operations:
assets_for_all: true```
and an overlay in `overlays-movies-4k.yml`:
```overlays:
4K:
overlay:
name: 4klabel
horizontal_offset: 20
horizontal_align: left
vertical_offset: 10
vertical_align: bottom
plex_search:
all:
resolution: 4K```
This works great - my overlay is added to 4K movies. But if I want to add a custom poster to a movie that already has an overlay, I get the following warning: ```Asset Warning: Dunkirk (2017) has an Overlay and will be updated when overlays are run```
I understand what this is saying, but I'm not really sure how to navigate it. If PMM has applied the overlay to the original poster, it doesn't want to update the overlay since nothing has changed, and therefore it also doesn't apply the new poster. If I change `reapply_overlays` to `true`, it works again. But this doesn't feel right, since I don't want PMM to have to reapply overlays to every movie every night. It feels wasteful. Am I missing something? I would expect PMM to update the poster first, and then add the overlay to the new poster. The docs on https://metamanager.wiki/en/latest/metadata/overlay.html say that if I want a custom poster, this is the method to use. But I guess it assumes I change the poster before the movie gets an overlay?
I'm pretty new to PMM so it may be a simple configuration thing. Thanks!
