While going through this process, Plex-Meta-Manager is going to load the movies in your library, create some collections, and apply some overlays. If you have a large library, this will be very time-consuming.
|
|
|
|
For learning and testing, you would be well-advised to create a small test library of a reasonable size, where reasonable it probably below a thousand.
|
|
|
|
The author has a small library of 10 movies that is used for fast tests.
|
|
|
|
For best results *with this walkthrough*, your test library will contain:
|
|
|
|
- At least two comedy movies released since 2012.
|
|
- At least two movies from the [IMDB top 250](https://www.imdb.com/chart/top/).
|
|
- At least two movies from [IMDB's Popular list](https://www.imdb.com/chart/moviemeter).
|
|
- At least two movies from [IMDB's Lowest Rated](https://www.imdb.com/chart/bottom).
|
|
- A couple different resolutions among the movies.
|
|
|
|
That will ensure there's something to go into each of the example collections that will be created.
|
|
|
|
The advantage of the small test library is that it will reduce the time needed to see results. Running some of these default collections against a library of a few thousand movies can take hours, and for iterative testing it's useful to have something that will run in a few minutes or seconds.

You can set up a test library like this using symlinks without copying files.
