Switch between the tighter presets first surface and the full XRDB control stack.
Optional. Only needed when the XRDB host enables request protection. When present, the configurator carries it into previews, config strings, proxy manifests, and exported URL patterns.
Soft is recommended for compatibility. Switch to Strict if you sometimes see incorrect logo or backdrop artwork from TMDB ID collisions.
Optional. Recommended. Your key is used first. If left blank, XRDB falls back to the service key when one exists. This helps if the shared service key is rate limited or blocked later.
The guide recommends a preset based on deployment, density, and how much manual tuning you expect to do afterwards.
Apply a preset to get a curated starting point, then keep tuning from there.
