    This is a note to myself and for anyone else interested in how the badges and ribbons are identified from movie files...

    Source refers to where the badge is identified from. If it comes from the Filename then the Poster Wall simply grabs it from characters in the filename, Player needs the movie to be opened before the badge will appear, and Poster is identified by the Poster Wall depending on how the movie is identified. Filename+Player requires the movie to be both tagged and opened.

    The audio badges fall into 2 categories where channels are missing or channels are specified.
    Code:
    Badge               Source              Filename Tag
    -----               ------              ------------
    4K                  Filename            2160
    2K                  ?
    1080                Player
    720                 Player
    SD                  Player

    DTS-X               Filename            DTS-X

    Dolby Atmos x.y     Filename            TrueHD x.y Atmos
    
    Ribbons are shown for each movie on the wall depending on what the Poster picks up or a tag in the filename.
    Code:
    Ribbon              Source      Filename Tag
    ------              ------      ------------
    Collection (Blue)   Poster

    DVD (Dark Red)      Filename    DVD
    3DBD (Green)        Poster
    TV show (Purple)    Poster

    For me, the content of the film is more important than the icons. Recently came out a lot of interesting films. They're so addictive that you forget a lot about it.
