Poster width * height
This sets the width and height for your posters. The posters will be scaled to this resolution during the export. Make sure you use an asterix * and NOT an X when defining the dimensions.

Note: When exporting Art and/or Posters, do note that the art and/or posters may not be in the specified resolution. This is due to the way Plex exports the images. The resolution may depend on the image resolution of the images that your Plex Media Server has stored and the image resolution you have specified in the settings.

Art width * height
This sets the width and height for your posters. The posters will be scaled to this resolution during the export. Make sure you use an asterix * and NOT an X when defining the dimensions.

Export Art and Posters in original size
This option will allow you to export the Posters and Art in their original size (as stored by your Plex server). When enabled, this setting will override the poster and/or art dimensions you set above.

Export Art and Posters in a folder tree
This option allows the output .csv file to be saved in the folder you nominated in Export Settings. This folder will also contain a tree folder that contains a folder with your Servers name and that will contain a folder with your Library's name and that will contain your Movie folders. The Movie folders will contain the art and/or poster for that Movie.
