AU Content Rating Collections

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

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

Requirements & Recommendations

Supported Library Types: Movie, Show

Recommendation: Set the Certification Country within your library's advanced settings to "Australia"

Collections Section 110

Collection Key Description
Ratings Collections separator Separator Collection to denote the Section of Collections.
<<Content Rating>> Movies/Shows
Example: G Movies
<<Content Rating>>
Example: G
Collection of Movies/Shows that have this Content Rating.
Not Rated Movies/Shows other Collection of Movies/Shows that are Unrated, Not Rated or any other uncommon Ratings.

Config

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

libraries:
  Movies:
    collection_files:
      - default: content_rating_au
  TV Shows:
    collection_files:
      - default: content_rating_au

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.

Variable Lists (click to expand)
  • File-Specific Template Variables are variables available specifically for this Kometa Defaults file.
