In order to add an overlay to a set of items you must add item_overlay: OVERLAY_NAME
to the collection config, where OVERLAY_NAME
matches the exact name of a folder in your overlays
directory.
Your overlays
directory must be inside your config folder structured like below:
config
├── overlays
│ ├── OVERLAY_NAME
│ ├── overlay.png
OVERLAY_NAME
is the folder contacting youroverlay.png
and its name is what you giveitem_overlay
to refer to this specific overlay.overlay.png
is the overlay file with the banner. You can create you're own with this PSD. The font can be found here.- An item can only be in one overlay search so make sure you exclude other searches when using multiple overlays.
- Posters will be backed up in the overlay director and if an item is removed from the search the original poster should be added back.
revert_overlay
can be added to an overlay collection configuration to revert all movies changed by that overlay back to their original posters.
This is an example of the default set found here which would have 5 overlay options 4K
, 4K-Dolby
, 4K-HDR
, Dolby
, and HDR
and have a directory structured like below:
config
├── config.yml
├── Movies.yml
├── TV Shows.yml
├── overlays
│ ├── 4K
│ ├── overlay.png
│ ├── 4K-Dolby
│ ├── overlay.png
│ ├── 4K-HDR
│ ├── overlay.png
│ ├── Dolby
│ ├── overlay.png
│ ├── HDR
│ ├── overlay.png
