I'm still pretty “new” to the whole thing, and I'm trying to transfer things from another config I found, but no matter what I've tried so far, it fails with "Filme" and the collection_files.

There's a formatting error around line 41 to 57 in the config.yml:

| YAML Error: while parsing a block collection                                                       |
|         in "/config/config.yml", line 41, column 7                                                 |
|       expected <block end>, but found '<block sequence start>'                                     |
|         in "/config/config.yml", line 57, column 8                                                 |

But overall this config is a mess.

This:

    metadata_file:

Should be:

    metadata_files:

everywhere it appears

This:

    collections:
      - Neue Serien:
          sync_mode: sync
          collection_order: release.desc
          builder_level: show
          plex_all: true
          filters:
            tmdb_status:
              - returning
              - planned
              - production
            first_episode_aired: 45
      - Trending Anime:
          anilist_trending: 10
          collection_order: custom
          sync_mode: sync
      - Popular Anime:
          anilist_popular: 10
          collection_order: custom
          sync_mode: sync
      - Top Rated Anime:
          anilist_top_rated: 30
          collection_order: custom
          sync_mode: sync

And the other two collections sections under other libraries do not belong in the config.yml; it goes in an external YAML file.

Just like:

      - file: config/collections/anime/010_suggested.yml

The error you are seeing is because line 58 is indented one space too many; compare the indentation between line 51 and line 58:

at line 117 this doesn't go in the middle of the collection_files and is indented too far:

      operations:
        - schedule: daily
          delete_unmanaged_collections: false
        - schedule: weekly(thursday)
          mass_audience_rating_update: mdb_average
          mass_critic_rating_update: mdb_metacritic
          mass_user_rating_update: imdb
          mass_content_rating_update: mdb
          mass_genre_update: imdb
        - schedule: weekly(thursday)
          mass_poster_update:
            source: tmdb
            seasons: false
            episodes: false

operations should be at the same level as collection_files.

i have removed the collection's that should lead to an external file, and have corrected the expression of operations, but still get an error ..

[mint marten]

looks like it was just a formatting error, if I may ask something else, the collection that I have now removed “Neue Serien” can I just copy this into a new yaml, or is there a part missing? sorry for the stupid question ..

i mean this here: collections: - Neue Serien: sync_mode: sync collection_order: release.desc builder_level: show plex_all: true filters: tmdb_status: - returning - planned - production first_episode_aired: 45 - Trending Anime: anilist_trending: 10 collection_order: custom sync_mode: sync - Popular Anime: anilist_popular: 10 collection_order: custom sync_mode: sync - Top Rated Anime: anilist_top_rated: 30 collection_order: custom sync_mode: sync

[deft geyser]

Yes, that goes in an external file, just like all the others you have, and gets linked in the config in the same way.

thanks
