Firstly, I have noticed on at least on of my movie files that Kometa is not updating the audio codec overlay. When I fist added Rebel Moon it was 1080 and AC3, however to save space I run them through Fileflows to make everything 720 and AAC. I have tried running with reapply_overlays as well as removing overlays and then running again to add them back but with everything I have tried it keeps popping back up with Dolby Digital overlay. What would I need to do to get this to update? I process all my files this way but I haven't taken a deep dive into everything to see if they have changes or not.

Secondly, I was playing around in plex and added movie posters from theposterdb to match a collection poster I had set in my collections file. I started with just one to see if I was doing things correctly. After updating the few posters and running Kometa this last time I noticed that the posters reverted back to the original ones that previously already had an overlay applied. Would the correct way to do this with using Kometa then be a metadata file instead of changing them directly within plex?

The audio codec overlay choice is a regex on the title of the audio track and/or the filepath.

In your example above both the filepath and title of the aac audio track contain "DD", which matches the expectation for the digital overlay.

Neither path nor audio track title match the expectation for the aac overlay.

          - key: digital
            value: '(?i)\b(dd)|(ac3)|(dolby)(\b|\d)'
          - key: aac
            value: '(?i)\b(aac|stereo|2\.0)\b'

#

When Kometa applies an overlay to a poster, it saves a backup of the clean art, which is used on subsequent overlay reapplications. If you change the art in Plex and then reapply overlays, your new art gets stomped by the backup art.

Avoid this by changing art with a metadata file OR the asset directory, or when you change the art in Plex remove the "Overlay" label from the item to make Kometa grab and backup the new art you set.

I got the metadata file figured out. And I see what you mean by the name of the file still saying it's DD while the codec is AAC. It's not a make or break kind of deal but it was annoying me just because I didn't know why it was happening. Thanks
