Audio Codec Overlay¶

The audio_codec Default Overlay File is used to an overlay based on the audio codec available on each item within your library.

Requirements & Recommendations¶

Supported Overlay Level: Movie, Show, Season, Episode

Recommendations: Designed for TRaSH Guides filename naming scheme.

Standard Style¶

Below is a screenshot of the alternative Standard (standard) style which can be set via the style Template Variable.

Config¶

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

libraries:
  Movies:
    overlay_files:
      - default: audio_codec
  TV Shows:
    overlay_files:
      - default: audio_codec
      - default: audio_codec
        template_variables:
          builder_level: episode
      - default: audio_codec
        template_variables:
          builder_level: season

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.

File-Specific Template Variables are variables available specifically for this Kometa Defaults File.
Overlay Template Variables are additional variables shared across the Kometa Overlay Defaults.

Default Template Variable Values (click to expand)

Variable	Default
`horizontal_offset`	`0`
`horizontal_align`	`center`
`vertical_offset`	`15`
`vertical_align`	`top`
`back_color`	`#00000099`
`back_radius`	`30`
`back_width`	`305`
`back_height`	`105`/`189`

File-Specific Template VariablesOverlay Template Variables

Variable	Description & Values
`builder_level`	Description: Choose the Overlay Level. Values: `season` or `episode`
`regex_<<key>>`¹	Description: Controls the regex of the Overlay Search. Values: Any Proper Regex
`style`	Description: Choose the Overlay Style. Default: `compact` Values: `compact` or `standard`
`weight_<<key>>`¹	Description: Controls the weight of the Overlay. Higher numbers have priority. Values: Any Number
`style`	Description: Controls the visual theme of the collections created. Default: `bw` Values: `bw`, `rainier`, `signature`, `diiivoy`, or `diiivoycolor`

Each default collection has a key that you must replace <<key>> with when using this Template Variable. These keys are found in the table at the top of this page.

When something in this table is noted as expecting a number, typically that number is expressed in pixels, assuming an image 1000x1500 in size.

If the number is an offset, the value is relative to the corresponding alignment. Percentages are also relative to the alignment.

libraries:
  Movies:
    overlay_files:
      - default: resolution
        template_variables:
          horizontal_align: left
          horizontal_offset: 247
          vertical_align: bottom
          vertical_offset: 40%

libraries:
  Movies:
    overlay_files:
      - default: resolution
        template_variables:
          back_width: 198
          back_height: 47

For example: That would place the resolution overlay 247 pixels in from the left edge of the poster, and 40% of the way up from the bottom.

That would set the resolution overlay background to 198 pixels wide by 47 pixels high.

Color values should be wrapped in quotes in the YAML, as the # denotes a comment in YAML and if left unquoted will prevent the value from being seen by Kometa.

File paths need to be valid in the context where Kometa is running; this is primarily an issue when running in docker, as Kometa inside the container cannot see host paths.

Each default overlay has a key that when calling to effect a specific collection you must replace <<key>> with when calling.

Default Value Source¶

This is a reference showing the source of the data used in this Defaults File.

Nothing in this section is required for using the Defaults File, but it can be useful for understanding where the data comes from.

Nothing in this section is directly useful for customizing this Defaults File.

Nothing here is a code example for end user use. It all looks like code, since it is taken directly from the Kometa source code to ensure it is up-to-date and accurate, but it is not intended for end user use, and is expressed in a different format to the way you would customize the defaults via Template Variables.

I want to customize this default

To learn how to customize any Defaults File using Template Variables see the Defaults Usage Guide.

Each Defaults File has its own set of Template Variables, which are used to control the behavior of that default. The Template Variables for this file can be found here.

I want to know what's behind the defaults

The lists provided here are for reference to show what values will be in use if no customization is done.

These do not show how to customize the defaults.

Nothing here is a code example for end user use. It all looks like code, since it is taken directly from the Kometa source code to ensure it is up-to-date and accurate, but it is not intended for end user use.

These lists are provided for reference only.

If you want to customize these collections, refer to the Defaults Usage Guide to learn how to use Template Variables.

Audio Codec Overlays

The Audio Codec overlays use the plex_all Builder with filters on both audio channel name and filepath.
