Hi, I am trying to create a custom overlay by using the ribbon image from kometa but instead I intend to display ratings of imdb/tvdb/anidb depends on the library!
I am not very proficient in python but I asked a friend and used AI to fix the code but I am not sure what I am missing! Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙂
I can attach the logs and custom template if required for assistance

We will need a log showing the problem and the YAML you're using to offer anything but sympathy.

None of this belongs in the config:
metadata:
operations:
mass_update_general:
libraries:
- Movies
exclude: []
metadata:
rating:
sync_mode: sync
imdb: true
tmdb: true
rotten_tomatoes: true
metacritic: true
anidb: false # Disable AniDB for general libraries.
priority:
- imdb # Primary source: IMDb.
- tmdb # Fallback source: TMDb.
- rotten_tomatoes # Additional fallback.
- metacritic # Additional fallback.
No idea where any of that would have come from.
The specific cause of the problem is this:
template: ribbon_template
Which has to be, at minimum:
template:
name: ribbon_template
Ahh!
dark fable
But very little of that file looks valid
junior jetty
What I wanted to achieve was that, when the library of movies is scanned the rating overlay should have a priority for imdb. But in case the particular movie has no rating on imdb it should fall back to tmdb/rt etc!
I was not sure whether this can be achieved but thought of giving it a go 🙂

Ai isnt very good with kometa either btw

It can using mass_*_rating_update operations
junior jetty
Ohh! Is there any guide or has someone done this before?
dark fable
Are you trying to work with the rating overlay or the ribbon overlay?
junior jetty
I have just taken the blank yellow ribbon and trying to display rating on it!

You can update a rating to IMDB with a fallback to TMDB, etc.
You cannot however change the overlay based on which one got set.
This, for example:
libraries:
Movies:
operations:
mass_audience_rating_update:
- imdb
- tmdb
- mdb_tomatoes
Would set the critic rating to whatever one of those returned a value first.
No IMDB? try TMDB. No TMDB? Try tomatoes
Now that there is a number in the critic rating, you could put that number on the overlay, but you could not display IMDB/TMDB/TOMATOES since the source will have been lost.
junior jetty
Understood! I would have the rating value such as 6.5 or 7.8 but I would not know what is the source
dark fable
correct.
junior jetty
Would it possible to display this number over the ribbon overlay?
dark fable
The ribbon overlay already has an icon on it; it seems that the number will be illegible.
But, sure you could draw the rating on the poster wherever you want.
junior jetty
Would it be possible then to use the default rating overlay but to display it slanted vertically or 45deg on the bottom right like how the ribbon appears 😅
I tried the default rating with template variables but not sure if I can skew or rotate the appearance
dark fable
I don't think text overlays can be rotated.
You could probably do it with a bunch of images of the rotated text, choosing the right one with a conditional; similar to the way the correct ribbon is selected.
junior jetty
Ahh I see!
junior jetty
This, for example:
```yaml
libraries:
Movies:
operations:
mass_audie...
I have a question on this example. So for the returned text to be used as overlay I have to use a overlay file attribute?
dark fable
All that example does is stick the rating into the critic rating box.
Then in your overlay you'd use that rating.
As in this example:
overlays:
backdrop:
overlay:
name: backdrop
back_color: "#00000099"
back_height: 100
vertical_align: top
plex_all: true
mytext:
overlay:
name: text(Critic Rating is <<critic_rating>>)
horizontal_offset: 0
horizontal_align: center
vertical_offset: 20
vertical_align: top
font_size: 63
font_color: "#FFFFFF"
plex_all: true
Thanks for this. I will explore a few more of the configs and see what I can come up with 🙂
