TMDb

Background

This is an optional YAML section of your global preferences file (preferences.yml) for outlining how TCM interacts with the public database service, TMDb. TMDb is used for many things by TCM, but notably the following:

  • Automatically downloading source image files for use in title cards
  • Automatically downloading logos for title cards and summaries
  • Automatically adding episode title translations to data files
