SportScanner VS Community-Configs

Use SportScanner. Get the naming convention from SportsDB.

I know it is here https://github.com/mmmmmtasty/SportScanner

I use SportScanner. Name your files the way they are named in thesportsdb.com

Create your own metadata agent that calls to your web server to get the image to add to the metadata. I'm not aware of any formal documentation that still exists for creating metadata agents. This archive of dev.plexapp.com might help: https://web.archive.org/web/20150113085312/http://dev.plexapp.com:80/docs/agents/models.html, but you may be stuck with looking at existing agents (like SportScanner.bundle) to see real examples of how to grab images for Plex to use.

Trying to get SportScanner working without much luck. I had it in the wrong folders originally but got that worked out.

I assume you've got the Scanners and SportScanner.bundle folders in the wrong locations. The installation instructions are fairly clear.

Try SportScanner.

and don't forget loads of people upload theirs to the github if someone needs ideas/help seeing how it's done https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager-Configs/tree/master

Take a look at this template (https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager-Configs/blob/master/meisnate12/People.yml); it could be modified to include only those actors you want for your collections. In your config.yml file you'd point to that local People.yml file instead of the - pmm file in the standard config.

Yes. You can even just copy / paste in collections other people created. you would probably want something like this https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager-Configs/blob/master/OhMyBahGosh/TV.yml.

People share their configs all the time in the Discord server, and you can find a bunch of them HERE

Here is the repo for the config files https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager-Configs

Once you get it working check out some of the configs others have posted to get/steal ideas. Browsing the discord is another great place to get help or ideas and borrow code.

Thanks! I actually been messing around and put some of the config downloads from here: https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager-Configs directly in my PMM appdata folder. I had to manually update all the configs and run the script, but it seems to be working.

You might also would want to look through the PMM configs repository for configurations of other users who might have some more or other lists for that purpose.
