Overlay Files

Overlay files are used to create and maintain overlays within the Plex libraries on the server.

Overlays and templates are defined within one or more Overlay files, which are linked to libraries in the Libraries Attribute within the Configuration File.

All overlay coordinates assume 1000 x 1500 for Posters and 1920 x 1080 for Backgrounds and Title Cards.

To remove all overlays add remove_overlays: true to the overlay_path Libraries Attribute.

IMPORTANT NOTE ON OVERLAYS: Once you have applied overlays to your posters in Plex, it is highly recommended that you never change artwork on a thing directly in Plex again. PMM uses labels on the items in Plex to decide if an overlay has been applied, so if you change artwork behind PMM's back things can become confused and items can end up with double-overlaid posters. It's recommended to set new artwork using the asset directory, which will ensure that this doesn't happen.

To change a single overlay original image either remove the Overlay shared label and update the Image in Plex or replace the image in the assets folder and then PMM will overlay the new image

These are the attributes which can be used within the Overlay File:

Attribute	Description
`templates`	contains definitions of templates that can be leveraged by multiple overlays
`external_templates`	contains path types that point to external templates that can be leveraged by multiple overlays
`queues`	contains the positional attributes of queues
`overlays`	contains definitions of overlays you wish to add

overlays is required in order to run the Overlay File.
Example Overlay Files can be found in the Plex Meta Manager Configs Repository

Overlays Attributes

Each overlay definition requires its own section within the overlays attribute.

overlays:
  IMDb Top 250:
    # ... builders, details, and filters for this overlay
  4K:
    # ... builders, details, and filters for this overlay
  etc:
    # ... builders, details, and filters for this overlay

There are multiple types of attributes that can be utilized within an overlay:

Overlay

Each overlay definition needs to specify what overlay to use. This can happen in 3 ways.

If there is no overlay attribute PMM will look in your config/overlays folder for a .png file named the same as the mapping name of the overlay definition. This example below would look for IMDb Top 250.png.
```
overlays:
  IMDb Top 250:
    imdb_chart: top_movies
```
If the overlay attribute is given a string PMM will look in your config/overlays folder for a .png file named the same as the string given. This example below would look for IMDbTop.png.
```
overlays:
  overlay: IMDbTop
  IMDb Top 250:
    imdb_chart: top_movies
```

Using a dictionary for more overlay location options.

overlays:
  IMDb Top 250:
    overlay:
      name: IMDb Top 250
    imdb_chart: top_movies

There are many attributes available when using overlays to edit how they work.

Non-Positional Image Overlay

Non-Positional overlays are images that are either 1000 x 1500 for Posters or 1920 x 1080 for Backgrounds and Title Cards.

These Overlays should be mostly transparent and will just be completely merged with the base image.

Positional Image Overlay

Positional overlays can be of any size and use horizontal_offset, horizontal_align, vertical_offset, and vertical_align to position the overlay on the image.

overlays:
  IMDB-Top-250:
    imdb_chart: top_movies
    overlay:
      name: IMDB-Top-250
      pmm: images/IMDB-Top-250
      horizontal_offset: 0
      horizontal_align: right
      vertical_offset: 0
      vertical_align: bottom

Blurring Overlay

There is a special overlay named blur that when given as the overlay name will instead of finding the image will just blur the image instead.

You can control the level of the blur by providing a number with the attribute like so blur(##).

overlays:
  blur:
    overlay:
      name: blur(50)
    builder_level: episode
    plex_search:
      all:
        resolution: 4K

Backdrop Overlay

There is a special overlay named backdrop that when given as the overlay name will instead of finding the image will just apply the background instead.

You can set the size of the backdrop with back_width and back_height. By Default, they will extend the length of the Image.

overlays:
  blur:
    overlay:
      name: backdrop
      back_color: "#00000099"
    builder_level: episode
    plex_all: true

Text Overlay

You can add text as an overlay using the special text() overlay name. Anything inside the parentheses will be added as an overlay onto the image. Ex text(4K) adds 4K to the image.

You can control the font, font size and font color using the font, font_size, and font_color overlay attributes.

You can control the backdrop of the text using the various back_* attributes.

The horizontal_offset and vertical_offset overlay attributes are required when using Text Overlays.

PMM includes multiple fonts in the fonts folder which can be called using fonts/fontname.ttf

overlays:
  audience_rating:
    overlay:
      name: text(Direct Play)
      horizontal_offset: 0
      horizontal_align: center
      vertical_offset: 150
      vertical_align: bottom
      font: fonts/Inter-Medium.ttf
      font_size: 63
      font_color: "#FFFFFF"
      back_color: "#00000099"
      back_radius: 30

Special Text Variables

You can use the item's metadata to determine the text by adding Special Text Variables to your text Overlay.

There are multiple Special Text Variables that can be used when formatting the text. The variables are defined like so <<name>> and some can have modifiers like so <<name$>> where $ is the modifier. The available options are:

Special Text Variables & Mods	Movies	Shows	Seasons	Episodes

Note: You can use the mass_audience_rating_update or mass_critic_rating_update Library Operation to update your plex ratings to various services like tmdb, imdb, mdb, metacritic, letterboxd and many more.

Example

I want to have the audience_rating display with a % out of 100 vs 0.0-10.0.

overlays:
  audience_rating:
    overlay:
      name: text(<<audience_rating%>>%)
      horizontal_offset: 225
      horizontal_align: center
      vertical_offset: 15
      vertical_align: top
      font: fonts/Inter-Medium.ttf
      font_size: 63
      font_color: "#FFFFFF"
      back_color: "#00000099"
      back_radius: 30
      back_width: 300
      back_height: 105

I want to add S##E## to all my episode images.

overlays:
  text_content_rating:
    builder_level: episode
    overlay:
      name: text(S<<season_number0>>E<<episode_number0>>)
      horizontal_align: center
      vertical_offset: 15
      vertical_align: top
      font: fonts/Inter-Medium.ttf
      font_size: 63
      font_color: "#FFFFFF"
      back_color: "#00000099"
      back_radius: 30
      back_width: 300
      back_height: 105
    plex_all: true

Common Special Text Uses

These are some commonly-used examples of Special Text overlays:

Special Text	Example Output
`name: text(S<<season_number0>>E<<episode_number0>>)`	S01E01
`name: text(Season <<season_number>> Episode <<episode_number>>)`	Season 1 Episode 1
`name: text(Season <<season_number>>)`	Season 1
`name: text(Episode <<episode_number>>)`	Episode 1
`name: "text(Runtime: <<runtime>>m)"`	Runtime: 90m
`name: "text(Runtime: <<runtimeH>>h <<runtimeM>>m)"`	Runtime: 1h 30m

Text Addon Images

You can add an image to accompany the text by specifying the image location using file, url, git, or repo.

Use addon_offset to control the space between the text and the image.

Use addon_position to control which side of the text the image will be located on.

overlays:
  audience_rating:
    overlay:
      name: text(audience_rating)
      horizontal_offset: 225
      horizontal_align: center
      vertical_offset: 15
      vertical_align: top
      font: fonts/Inter-Medium.ttf
      font_size: 63
      font_color: "#FFFFFF"
      back_color: "#00000099"
      back_radius: 30
      back_width: 300
      back_height: 105
      pmm: images/raw/IMDB_Rating
      addon_position: left
      addon_offset: 25

Overlay Groups

Overlay groups are defined by the name given to the group attribute. Only one overlay with the highest weight per group will be applied.

This is an example where the Multi-Audio overlay will be applied over the Dual-Audio overlay for every item found by both.

overlays:
  Dual-Audio:
    overlay:
      name: Dual-Audio
      pmm: images/Dual-Audio
      group: audio_language
      weight: 10
      horizontal_offset: 0
      horizontal_align: center
      vertical_offset: 15
      vertical_align: bottom
    plex_all: true
    filters:
      audio_language.count_gt: 1
  Multi-Audio:
    overlay:
      name: Multi-Audio
      pmm: images/Multi-Audio
      group: audio_language
      weight: 20
      horizontal_offset: 0
      horizontal_align: center
      vertical_offset: 15
      vertical_align: bottom
    plex_all: true
    filters:
      audio_language.count_gt: 2

Overlay Queues

Overlay queues are defined by the name given to the queue attribute. The overlay with the highest weight is put into the first queue position, then the second highest is placed in the second queue position and so on.

You can define the queue positions by using the queues attribute at the top level of an Overlay File. You can define as many positions as you want.

queues:
  custom_queue_name:
    - horizontal_offset: 300        # This is the first position
      horizontal_align: center
      vertical_offset: 1375
      vertical_align: top
    - horizontal_offset: 300        # This is the second position
      horizontal_align: center
      vertical_offset: 1250
      vertical_align: top
      
overlays:
  IMDb:
    imdb_chart: popular_movies
    overlay:
      name: text(IMDb Popular)
      queue: custom_queue_name
      weight: 20
      font: fonts/Inter-Medium.ttf
      font_size: 65
      font_color: "#FFFFFF"
      back_color: "#00000099"
      back_radius: 30
      back_width: 380
      back_height: 105
  TMDb:
    tmdb_popular: 100
    overlay:
      name: text(TMDb Popular)
      queue: custom_queue_name
      weight: 10
      font: fonts/Inter-Medium.ttf
      font_size: 65
      font_color: "#FFFFFF"
      back_color: "#00000099"
      back_radius: 30
      back_width: 400
      back_height: 105

Suppress Overlays

You can add suppress_overlays to an overlay definition and give it a list or comma separated string of overlay names you want suppressed from this item if this overlay is attached to the item.

So in this example if the 4K-HDR overlay matches an item then the 4K and HDR overlays will also match. The suppress_overlays attribute on 4K-HDR will stop the overlays specified (4K and HDR) from also being applied.

overlays:
  4K:
    plex_search:
      all:
        resolution: 4K
  HDR:
    plex_search:
      all:
        hdr: true
  4K-HDR:
    suppress_overlays:
      - 4K
      - HDR
    plex_search:
      all:
        resolution: 4K
        hdr: true

Examples

Example Overlay File

overlays:
  4K:
    overlay:
      name: 4K    # This will look for a local overlays/4K.png in your config folder
    plex_search:
      all:
        resolution: 4K
  HDR:
    overlay:
      name: HDR
      pmm: HDR
    plex_search:
      all:
        hdr: true
  Dolby:
    overlay:
      name: Dolby
      url: https://somewebsite.com/dolby_overlay.png
    plex_all: true
    filters:
      has_dolby_vision: true
