I just had a run complete with 391 Overlay Errors. The warning says

|=======|============================================================================================|
|   391 | Overlay Error: This item's poster already has an Overlay. There is no Kometa setting to change; manual attention required. |```

If I run this again with the "- reapply_overlays: true"  set, is this likely to fix them or do I need to go through them one by one?

You need to go through them one by one. This is the "manual attention" that is required.

Do not use reapply_overlays: true, it will not help

#

Normally this error is seen when a show doesn't have a season poster, Plex falls back to using the Show poster in that scenario, and if the Show's poster already has an Overlay then the season overlay cannot apply

The first example:

           | 8-Bit Christmas                                                                                    |
[ERROR]    |     Overlay Error: This item's poster already has an Overlay. There is no Kometa setting to change; manual attention required. |
           |   Overlays Attempted on 8-Bit Christmas: Overlay File (2) Rating1Fresh, Overlay File (2) Rating2Fresh, Overlay File (3) 4K-HDR, Overlay File (5) Dolby-Digital-Plus-Atmos |

Kometa wants to apply overlays to 8-Bit Christmas

In Plex, 8-Bit Christmas does not have the "Overlay" label that would tell Kometa that "This already has an overlay and Kometa should use the backup art".

So it asks Plex for the current art on 8-Bit Christmas.

When Kometa gets the image, it finds the image has an EXIF tag that identifies it as being an overlaid image that was produced and applied by Kometa

Kometa will not apply overlays to such an image, as that would double-apply overlays.

It also can't determine what the base art is, so it can't get a clean version.

The only thing it could do is pull the first poster in Plex's list, but there's a non-zero chance that's wrong, so all it can do is alert you, a human:

Overlay Error: This item's poster already has an Overlay. There is no Kometa setting to change; manual attention required.

You need to either reapply the "Overlay" label [assuming the backup art exists] OR
Choose a new poster in Plex that doesn't have overlays on it and run Kometa again.

Is there a way I can search for the tag in Plex somehow to save scrolling through the thousands of movies?

#

The log will list the affected movies.

your log identifies which movies had the issues. just because it has an overlay doesn't mean it has an issue
