Creating your first NFO

Once you have the program running, it should be quite self explanatory!
As you can see from the images below, you can fill in the fields with the information you can find on the show.

Please use direct links in the images (e.g ending in .jpg or .png)
For finding the headshots, the last column of the table is a clickable cell, which will automatically open a new tab to search the actor whose name is in the first column! Once you find one you like, right click and Copy Image Address or Copy Image Link - you can then paste into the program.

Once you have all of this filled out, you would put a path in the bottom box (windows: C:/users/pete/Desktop for example, Linux: /home/pete/Desktop)
Click "Create NFO" and a file will be created with ShowName - ShowDate.nfo for example, Wicked-2020-01-01.nfo in the directory of your choosing.

This can then be moved to your Plex library (see Configuring your Plex Library, and renamed to match the video file.
Once this is done, refresh metadata for the item and you should then see the full cast information!
