UpdateTool VS Kometa

I use UpdateTool to update the IMDb ratings daily and set the badges where they are missing.

I have IMDB Ratings on my TV Shows. You can do it with UpdateTool. But you must pay for TVDB API.

Tautulli, Plex Meta Manager, UpdateTool for IMDB

Because of this I started using Myntt's Updatetool some years back, which updates my IMDb ratings daily. You can also use Plex Meta Manager to update other ratings such as RT using the mass ratings update operation

Others have answered your questions. Juste wanted to ad that you might want to look into Plex Update Tool

IMDb all the way. Especially when paired with mynttt/UpdateTool, you can get fresh ratings constantly. I update mine every 12hrs.

I use this on my server https://github.com/mynttt/UpdateTool It updates every 12 hours

The mdblist api key should be included farther down your config.yml. More info here More info on overlays here I also recommend sporadically using UpdateTool to update the IMDb ratings of your library, as they can change quite a bit. Especially on recent movies.

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.
