SportScanner VS Kometa

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.

Download everything from my repo and from PMM repo

Digging into it more and more I discovered the FlixPatrol option to get the tops from the mainstream providers, and I know for sure this would be much appreciated among my users, as well as myself to be honest. I got very hyped by it, only to discover that due to a recent change of policy from FlixPatrol, support for it is being dropped.

Plex-Meta-Manager: Handles collections and metadata for Plex.

You then want to make a single movie library that uses the /Movies path. That way when movies are "upgraded" you don't have to have that new library download new metadata. Plex natively doesn't have auto collection creation but you can use something like Plex Meta Manager. I'd try to figure it out using their wiki but if you can't or need help they seem to have a discord. Just quickly looking you can make collections by resolution so I assume there is some way to base it on audio type.

Plex Meta Manager (GitHub) for some automated library organization. This one has been a long process. It's a steep learning curve when you're first starting out, but my suggestion is to pick ONE feature and start there. That is, "I want a collection of the IMDb Top 250 Movies" and learn how to implement that, then move on to another feature you want to add. Currently, I have overlays for streaming services, audio quality, and video quality, plus collections for IMDb, award winners, filmmakers, actors, and production companies.

The default playlist config (referred to as PMM: playlist) has the following viewing order playlists pre-configured.
