Posterizarr

Report Bug · Request Feature

Supported Platforms 💻

Introduction

This PowerShell script automates the process of generating images for your Plex/Jellyfin/Emby media library. Leveraging information from your Plex/Jellyfin/Emby library, such as movie or show titles, season and episode data, it fetches relevant artwork from Fanart.tv, TMDB, TVDB, Plex and IMDB. The script is able to focus on artwork with specific languages to grab. By default, textless artwork xx is retrieved and will fall back to en if textless is not found. This is a setting a user can decide on, either to focus on textless or on text posters. It also offers both automatic and manual modes for generating posters. The manual mode can accommodate custom creations that cannot be bulk retrieved.

Note

Posterizarr is cross-platform ready, meaning it can run on Linux (also arm), Docker (Ubuntu 22.04 Base Image) does not work on ARM, unRAID and on Windows operating systems.

Supported Poster Types:

• Movie/Show Posters
• Movie/Show Backgrounds
• Season Posters
• TitleCards

Tip

Here is an installation walkthrough

Important

You do not have to redeploy the container if the script version changes because it is not part of the container. Container rebuilds only happen when there are changes to the ImageMagick, PowerShell, or other prerequisite versions.

Do not enable more then one media server.

If you want to install it on ARM please follow this carefully ARM prerequisites

Warning

• The temp Folder gets cleared on every Script run, so do not put files into it.
• Apprise integration only works in docker container, please use discord on other platforms (discord also works on docker).
• Please start the script as Admin on first run, otherwise the script is not able to install the prerequisites.

Key Features

Tip

If you want to use the created assets with Kometa (formerly PMM) make sure to check out the Assets doc

You can find an example config for the Assets on my Kometa-Configs repo

• Upload to Plex: If you do not have Kometa, posterizarr can directly Upload that Artwork to Plex.

• Upload to Jellyfin: Posterizarr can directly upload the artwork to Jellyfin.

• Upload to Emby: Posterizarr can directly upload the artwork to Emby.

• Backup: Downloading every Artwork from Plex to a backupshare (With kometa folder structure)

• Resizing: It automatically resizes every poster to 2000x3000.

• Overlays: If you choose to, downloaded images will automatically have borders, text, and a gradient overlay applied.

  • Here are some gradient overlays that you can use instead of the default one gradient-zip

• Automatic Library Search: The script autonomously searches for libraries within your Plex/Jellyfin/Emby server, enhancing its usability.

• Handling Multiple Versions: It adeptly manages multiple versions of a movie/show, ensuring comprehensive coverage.

• CSV Export: Produces an impressive CSV file containing all queried movie/show information during the script's runtime in $ScriptRoot\logs\PlexLibexport.csv or $ScriptRoot\logs\OtherMediaServerLibExport.csv

• Logging Capabilities: Records valuable information to a file in $ScriptRoot\logs\Scriptlog.log, facilitating troubleshooting and analysis.

  • It also generates a log with the output of every imagemagick command $ScriptRoot\logs\ImageMagickCommands.log.
  • Additionally, an ImageChoices.csv file is generated to store all the selected download options and essential information.
  • Send notification via apprise or discord Click here for Example pictures..

• Cross-platform Compatibility: Ensures seamless operation across Linux, Docker, and Windows Plex/Jellyfin/Emby servers, enhancing versatility.

• Poster/Background/TitleCard Creation: It searches fanart/tmdb/tvdb/Plex for posters/backgrounds/titlecards and resizes the downloaded image to 3840x2160 (for titlecards and backgrounds) or 2000x3000 (for posters), fallback is grabbing artwork from imdb.

Note

Upon initial execution, the script may take some time to run as it compiles necessary data. Subsequent runs will look at whether a poster in the AssetPath is missing and only create missing posters, bypassing existing assets in the directory. If you are unhappy with the downloaded artwork, delete it in the AssetPath directory, rerun and the script will populate the missing artwork.

Important

Requirements:

Before utilizing the script, ensure the following prerequisites are installed and configured:

• TMDB API Read Access Token: Obtain TMDB API Token - NOTE the TMDB API Read Access Token is the really, really long one
• Fanart Personal API Key: Obtain Fanart API Key
• TVDB API Key: Obtain TVDB API Key - Do not use "Legacy API Key", it only works with a Project Api Key.
• ImageMagick: - Version 7.x is required - The script handles downloading and using a portable version of ImageMagick for all platforms. (You may need to run the Script as Admin on first run). If you prefer to reference your own installation or prefer to download and install it yourself, goto: Download ImageMagick
• Powershell Version: 5.x or higher (Docker Image uses v7.4.2).

Configuration

1. Open config.example.json located in the script directory.

2. Update the following variables with your API keys and preferences:

   ApiPart [click to unfold]

   
   

   • tvdbapi: Your TVDB Project API key.
   • tmdbtoken: Your TMDB API Read Access Token.
   • FanartTvAPIKey: Your Fanart personal API key.
   • PlexToken: Your Plex token (Leave empty if not applicable).
   • JellyfinAPIKey: Your Jellyfin API key. (You can create an API key from inside Jellyfin at Settings > Advanced > Api Keys.)
   • EmbyAPIKey: Your Emby API key. (You can create an API key from inside Emby at Settings > Advanced > Api Keys.)
   • FavProvider: Set your preferred provider (default is tmdb).

     • possible values are:

       • tmdb (recommended)
       • fanart
       • tvdb
       • plex (Not recommended)
         • if you prefer textless, do not set plex as fav provider as i cannot query if it has text or not.
         • that beeing said, plex should act as last resort like IMDB does for Movies and not as fav provider.

       Search order in script

   • WidthHeightFilter: If set to true, an additional resolution filter will be applied to Posters/Backgrounds (TMDB and TVDB) and Titlecards (only on TMDB) searches.
   • PosterMinWidth: Minimum poster width filter—greater than or equal to: 2000 (default value)
   • PosterMinHeight: Minimum poster height filter—greater than or equal to: 3000 (default value)

     - !! IMPORTANT !! -
     
     Risk of Data Loss from excluded Libraries:
     
     When you exclude libraries, any assets within these locations may be inadvertently deleted.
     
     This happens because the script interprets these assets as "not needed anymore" during its execution since they are not found or listed as part of the active scan.
     
     Ensure that all active asset libraries are included when using that setting on true to prevent unintended deletions.

   • AutoUpdateIM : Set to true to AutoUpdate Imagemagick Portable Version (Does not work with Docker/Unraid).

3. Rename the config file to config.json.

4. Place the overlay.png, or whatever file you defined earlier in overlayfile, and Rocky.ttf font, or whatever font you defined earlier in font files in the same directory as Posterizarr.ps1 which is $ScriptRoot.

Usage

• Automatic Mode: Execute the script without any parameters to generate posters for your entire Plex library.
• Testing Mode: Run the script with the -Testing switch to create Test posters before you start using it.
• Manual Mode: Run the script with the -Manual switch to create custom posters manually.
• Backup Mode: Run the script with the -Backup switch to download every artwork from plex (only those what are set to true in config)

Note

• Ensure PowerShell execution policy allows script execution.
• Bugs or issues encountered during usage can be reported for resolution.

Automatic Mode

Run the script without any parameters:

.\Posterizarr.ps1

This will generate posters for your entire Plex library based on the configured settings.

The posters are all placed in AssetPath\.... This can then be mounted in Kometa to use as the assets folder.

Assets Tip

Tip

Have a look at the docker-compose.yml there is an example of the /assets Volume, you either can mount the Kometa Assets dir to Posterizarr or vice versa, its up to you.

Its important that you update the containerpath you specified in your docker-compose.yml in your config.json, in my example it is /assets.

• IMAGE ASSET DIRECTORY GUIDE

Assuming you made the config like i did, Posterizarr will now create the Posters directly in Kometa´s Asset dir.

If you use Kometa make sure to set this settings on each Library in Kometa Config:

libraries:
  4K TV Shows:
    settings:
      asset_directory: /assets/4K TV Shows
      prioritize_assets: true
    operations:
      assets_for_all: true

Modes

Tautulli Mode Docker

Important

Tautulli and Posterizarr must run as a container in Docker

Note

If Discord is configured it will send a Notification on each trigger.

In this mode we use Tautulli to trigger Posterizarr for an specific item in Plex, like a new show, movie or episode got added.

To use it we need to configure a script in Tautulli, please follow these instructions.

1. Make sure that you mount the Posterizarr directory to tautulli, cause the script needs the Path /posterizarr

   volumes:
     - "/opt/appdata/posterizarr:/posterizarr:rw"

2. Download the trigger.py from the GH and place it in the Tautulli Script dir -> Tautulli-Wiki
   • You may have to set chmod +x to the file.
3. Open Tautulli and go to Settings -> NOTIFICATION AGENTS
4. Click on Add a new notification agent and select Script
5. Specify the script folder where you placed the script and select the script file.
   • You can specify a Description at the bottom like i did.
   🖼️Example

   
   

   

6. Go to Triggers, scroll down and select Recently Added.
   🖼️Example

   
   

   

7. Go to Conditions, you can now specify when the script should get called.
   • In my case i specified the Media Type: episode, movie, show and season
   • I also excluded the Youtube Lib cause the videos i have there - do not have an tmdb,tvdb or fanart ID.
     • This is an recommended setting, either exclude such libs or include only those libs where Posterizarr should create art for.
   🖼️Example

   
   

   

8. Next go to Arguments -> Unfold Recently Added Menu and paste the following Argument, after that you can save it.
   • Please do not change the Argument otherwise the script could fail.

   <movie>RatingKey "{rating_key}" mediatype "{media_type}"</movie><show>grandparentratingkey "{grandparent_rating_key}" mediatype "{media_type}"</show><season>parentratingkey "{parent_rating_key}" grandparentratingkey "{grandparent_rating_key}" mediatype "{media_type}"</season><episode>RatingKey "{rating_key}" parentratingkey "{parent_rating_key}" grandparentratingkey "{grandparent_rating_key}" mediatype "{media_type}"</episode>

Tautulli Mode Windows

Note

If Discord is configured it will send a Notification on each trigger.

In this mode we use Tautulli to trigger Posterizarr for an specific item in Plex, like a new show, movie or episode got added.

1. Open Tautulli and go to Settings -> NOTIFICATION AGENTS
2. Click on Add a new notification agent and select Script
3. Specify the script folder of Posterizarr and select the script file.
   • Set the script timeout to 0, which is unlimited. (The default is 30, which would kill the script before it finishes.)

   🖼️Example

   
   

   

Testing Mode

Run the script with the -Testing flag. In this mode, the script will create pink posters/backgrounds with short, medium, and long texts (also in CAPS), using the values specified in the config.json file.

Tip

This is handy for testing your configuration before applying it en masse to the actual posters. You can see how and where the text would be applied, as well as the size of the textbox.

.\Posterizarr.ps1 -Testing

Manual Mode

Important

Currently only movie/show/season poster creation integrated.

Source picture gets edited by script and is then moved to desired asset location.

Run the script with the -Manual switch:

.\Posterizarr.ps1 -Manual

Follow the prompts to enter the source picture path (Container needs Access to it), media folder name, and movie/show title to manually create a custom poster.

Backup Mode

Run the script with the -Backup flag. In this mode, the script will download every artwork you have in plex, using the values specified in the config.json file.

Tip

This is handy for creating a backup or if you want an second assetfolder with kometa/tcm EXIF data for jellyfin/emby.

.\Posterizarr.ps1 -Backup

Sync Modes

Important

The script calculates the hash of the artwork from both servers to determine if they differ, and only if they do it gets synced.

Jellyfin

Run the script with the -SyncJelly flag. In this mode, the script will sync every artwork you have in plex to jellyfin.

.\Posterizarr.ps1 -SyncJelly

Emby

Run the script with the -SyncEmby flag. In this mode, the script will sync every artwork you have in plex to emby.

.\Posterizarr.ps1 -SyncEmby

Tip

This is handy if you want to run the sync after a kometa run, then you have kometa ovlerayed images in jelly/emby

Platforms & Tools

Docker

• Docker-Compose Example File

  • Change RUN_TIME in yaml to your needs - You need to use 24H Time Format
    • The Script gets executed on the Times you specified
    • Before starting the scheduled run it checks if another Posterizarr process is running, if yes - the scheduled run will be skipped.
  • Change volume and network to fit your environment (Make sure you have the same network as your plex container when you use local IP of plex)
  • Change TimeZone to yours, otherwise it will get scheduled to a different time you may want it to.
  • You may also have to change PUID/PGID

  If you manually want to run the Script you can do it this way:

  Automatic Mode:

  docker exec -it posterizarr pwsh /config/Posterizarr.ps1

  Testing Mode:

  docker exec -it posterizarr pwsh /config/Posterizarr.ps1 -Testing

  Manual Mode:

  docker exec -it posterizarr pwsh /config/Posterizarr.ps1 -Manual

Tip

If you did not used pwsh on docker exec you can do it this way.

Inside your Unraid or Bash or Sh console:

pwsh /config/Posterizarr.ps1
pwsh /config/Posterizarr.ps1 -Manual
pwsh /config/Posterizarr.ps1 -Testing

unRAID

Tip

If you are an unRAID user, just use the Community app from @nwithan8 it is listed in Store.

• Change RUN_TIME to your needs - You need to use 24H Time Format
  • Example: 06:00 or 06:00,14:00.....
• AssetPath in config needs to be /assets not the path you entered.

PR Rules

Important

• Adjust on each PR the version number in script on Line 14 $CurrentScriptVersion = "1.8.6"
• Adjust the version number in Release.txt to match the one in script.
  • this is required because the script checks against this file if a newer version is available.
• Do not include images on a PR.
