I suddenly notices this error. It goes back to 1/9 probably further back but the logs only go back that far. I am not sure what the error is in the the yaml file attached

First the log shows:
|====================================================================================================|

YAML Error: metadata attribute is required

The attributes metadata_path and overlay_path are now legacy, and will likely produce an error metadata attribute is required when running PMM.

We have new attributes: collection_files, overlay_files and metadata_files

Whilst this error can be ignored, we strongly advise you to move over to the new attributes, which can be done following this guidance:

:one: If your YAML file creates collections or is a PMM Defaults Collection File then it belongs under collection_files.

:two: If your YAML file creates overlays or is a PMM Defaults Overlay File then it belongs under overlay_files

:three: If your YAML file edits item metadata then it belongs under metadata_files

:four: If your file creates collections AND edits item metadata, then it should go in both collection_files and metadata_files

If you are unsure on the above, the majority of metadata_path files will now fall under collection_files, and all overlay_path files will now fall under overlay_files.

Below is an example of the new attributes in use:

libraries:
  Movies:
    collection_files:
      - pmm: imdb
    overlay_files:
      - pmm: resolution
    metadata_files:
      - file: config/metadata.yml
playlist_files:
  - pmm: playlists

version 1.20 splits "collection_files" and "metadata files".

Since your config is not using the new collection_files and metadata_files attributes, PMM is attempting to load /config/TV.yml as both a collection file and a metadata file.

The latter attempt fails, as expected. This "error" can be ignored, or you can adopt the new attributes as shown in that auto-reply.

Thank you! so were should I look in the documentation to see what this look like

teal kettle Jan 17, 2024, 3:02 PM

#

There's an example in this thread just above.

#

in the wiki it's described in the config file section.

I see thank you This still confuse me a bit and since I am not really using all the capabilities I will leave anything the same for now, unless you can make any suggestions. I am always willing to learn.

#

on a side note any Idea how to fix this erroe TMDb Error: No Show found for TMDb ID: 157088

teal kettle Jan 17, 2024, 3:08 PM

You probably have this:

libraries:
  TV Shows:
    metadata_path:
      - file: config/TV.yml

Change that to:

libraries:
  TV Shows:
    collection_files:
      - file: config/TV.yml

frozen prawn on a side note any Idea how to fix this erroe TMDb Error: No Show found for TMD...

Most likely, that's a movie. PMM can't find a show at TMDB with that ID. There's no way to "fix" that aside from not using that source with a TV library.

First step, though would be to find out what it is by looking up that ID at TMDB.

this is what I have
TV Shows05:
metadata_path:
- pmm: basic
- pmm: network
- pmm: franchise
- file: config/TV.yml

teal kettle Jan 17, 2024, 3:11 PM

Can't make head or tail of that broken formatting, but probably all you need is to change metadata_path to collection_files.

thank you again
