Resolution/Edition Overlay¶

The resolution Default Overlay File is used to create an overlay based on the resolutions and editions available on each item within your library.

Requirements & Recommendations¶

Supported Overlay Level: Movie, Show, Episode

Recommendations: Editions overlay is designed to use the Editions field within Plex [which requires Plex Pass to use] or the TRaSH Guides filename naming scheme

“Dovetail” versions¶

In the PMM log, you may see references to versions of these overlays with -Dovetail appended:

|                             4K-Plus-Dovetail Overlay in Movies                             |
|                              4K-DV-Dovetail Overlay in Movies                              |
|                             4K-HDR-Dovetail Overlay in Movies                              |
|                               4K-Dovetail Overlay in Movies                                |
...
|                        Extended-Edition-Dovetail Overlay in Movies                         |
|                          Uncut-Edition-Dovetail Overlay in Movies                          |
|                         Unrated-Edition-Dovetail Overlay in Movies                         |
...

These -Dovetail variations are used when resolution and edition are combined so that one “dovetails” into the other. This is not something you can enable or disable independently; it’s an internal implementation detail.

Config¶

The below YAML in your config.yml will create the overlays:

libraries:
  Movies:
    overlay_path:
      - pmm: resolution
  TV Shows:
    overlay_path:
      - pmm: resolution
      - pmm: resolution
        template_variables:
          builder_level: season
      - pmm: resolution
        template_variables:
          builder_level: episode

Template Variables¶

Template Variables can be used to manipulate the file in various ways to slightly change how it works without having to make your own local copy.

Note that the template_variables: section only needs to be used if you do want to actually change how the defaults work. Any value not specified is its default value if it has one if not it’s just ignored.

All Shared Overlay Variables are available with the default values below as well as the additional Variables below which can be used to customize the file.

Variable	Default
`horizontal_offset`	`15`
`horizontal_align`	`left`
`vertical_offset`	`15`
`vertical_align`	`top`
`back_color`	`#00000099`
`back_radius`	`30`
`back_width`	`305`
`back_height`	`105`/`189`

Variable	Description & Values
`use_resolution`	Description: Turns off all Resolution Overlays in the Defaults file. Values: `false` to turn off the overlays
`use_edition`	Description: Turns off all Edition Overlays in the Defaults file. Values: `false` to turn off the overlays
`builder_level`	Description: Choose the Overlay Level. Values: `season` or `episode`
`weight_<<key>>`¹	Description: Controls the weight of the Overlay. Higher numbers have priority. Only works with Edition keys. Values: Any Number

Each default overlay has a key that when calling to effect a specific overlay you must replace <<key>> with when calling.

The below is an example config.yml extract with some Template Variables added in to change how the file works.

libraries:
  Movies:
    overlay_path:
      - pmm: resolution
        template_variables:
          use_dv: false
          use_hdr: false
          use_1080p: false
          use_720p: false
          use_576p: false
          use_480p: false
          use_1080p_hdr: false
          use_1080p_dv: false
