Powys is on this map as a whole region rather than as a place, because Wikidata records 1 video game as set here and nothing finer. The dot sits at its centre, which is not where anything happens: it stands in for the whole area. Nothing is claimed to have been filmed at this point, and no film or series is placed this way anywhere on the atlas.
8 productions were filmed at 8 places inside Powys rather than at Powys itself — listed below, each with the place it was shot.

Set here
Video games that take place here. A game is filmed nowhere, so this is where the story is set rather than where a camera stood — a different claim from everything above, and kept under its own heading for that reason.
