US Content Rating Collections

The content_rating_us Default Collection File is used to dynamically create collections based on the content ratings available in your library.

If you do not use the US-based rating system within Plex, this file will attempt to match the ratings in your library to the respective rating system.

This file has a Movie Library Counterpart.

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 will use its default value if it has one if not it's just ignored.

??? abstract "Variable Lists (click to expand)"

* **File-Specific Template Variables** are variables available specifically for this Kometa Defaults file.

* **Shared Template Variables** are additional variables shared across the Kometa Defaults.

* **Shared Separator Variables** are additional variables available since this Default contains a 
[Separator](../separators.md).

???+ example "Example Template Variable Amendments"

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

```yaml
libraries:
  Movies:
    collection_files:
      - default: content_rating_us
        template_variables:
          sep_style: blue #(1)!
          use_other: false #(2)!
          append_addons:
            R: #(3)!
              - "de/18" #(4)!
          sort_by: title.asc
```

1.  Use the blue [Separator Style](../separators.md#separator-styles)
2.  Do not create a "Not Rated Movies" collection
3.  Defines a collection which will be called "R", this does not need to already exist in your library
4.  Adds the "de/18" content rating to the "R" addon list, "de/18" must exist in your library if the "R" content 
rating does not
