Hi Everyone, First, it goes without saying that Emby is really sweet, the devs have done, and continue to do, an awesome job! Quick question in regards to the icons for the Trailers and Collections channels (I think they're channels...?). Currently, across all of my clients, the icons for the Collections and Trailers Channel look like this: Is there any way to change them to something custom? With my regular library icons, I built little collages out of covers from my movie, music and TV collections. Thanks! JBL

Running 3.0.5781.5. I'm not sure I ever could set icons. The images show in the server manager for the folders I have set up, because assigning to Primary works (as do Backdrop, Thumb, Logo, Menu), but not in the Library view in the web UI nor in the Android TV app. When I upload an image and try to set its type to Icon I get this: 2015-12-19 19:04:43.5811 Info HttpServer: HTTP POST http://mini.tuxedo:8096/emby/Items/086e3be64d4b7f4a43f49e5294f890d5/Images/Icon.

HI, Just want to know if I am the only one who has tv icons manually adjusted for live tv (Channel 7, Win, Network 10 etc), but every server update breaks them and I have to manually edit the metadata images for them? This is a little time consuming (not really too bad, but a PITA), anybody notice similair behaviour. This happens across all machines (win 7 pc and win 7 htpc, all clients - android, moto x and tf700 tablet, with server 3.0.5675.1). Thanks

I recently switched to the new Web interface, but in the process also lost the function of genre icons (primary images) as well as the backdrops for each genre. Everything works fine when I revert to the classic interface. Does anyone have any ideas how to troubleshoot this anomaly??

I made a few different MediaInfo icon sets, same overlay as the others, just some different backgrounds. Follow the info in this post if you don't know where to put them. http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/topic/695-imagesbyname-folder/ https://www.dropbox.com/s/e7kuxw13hk919f6/MediaInfo%20Icons%20Border.zip?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/15uqtw5wv9v87se/MediaInfo%20Icons%20Box.zip?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/t3rdp9nnl4wfajz/MediaInfo%20Icons%20Flat.zip?dl=0

Look here for a bunch of nice icons in diverent styles ex. Io8, Windows8, Android etc.. Icons8 Cinena icons Windows8 Style

Does MBC currently look at the ImagesByName\GameGenre directory for the gamebrowser genre icons? It seems to be fetching the icons from ImagesByName\Genre.

I have placed some user created icons for themes in the mediainfo folder in a separate folder named all. This is in the server too btw, which I assume is where they go? I have created a skydrive link and placed the folder there for others and so the naming can be verified. I believe they are all named correctly so they should be used, however only a few will display properly. The Dolby TrueHD will but the DTS-Ma will not? The year Icons will also not display. Can some one point me in the right direction? If you have better ones, please let me know where I can get them. Thanks Link:http://sdrv.ms/1d2iaKj

I found these awesome collection icons in the fan art forum, but I cannot find where to put them on my server...The ones I'm referring to are the favorites icon/background, and the movie genre icon/background.

I am starting a poll to get an idea of how many MediaBrowser users actually populate their genres with icons for their collections. I have noticed that some MB clients (MBC, MBT excluded) don't pull the genre icons from the server and instead just use the label. So really what I want to know is there a demand for genre icons to be pulled to other clients as well or do most of you simply not use genre icons and could care less. Thanks.

A few more icons here that people may be interested in: http://quaffleeye.deviantart.com/gallery/

I'm trying to track down the forum topic for the Genre Icons that were created for the Server Builds and are preloaded, but I can't find it anywhere - I've used search, gone thru various sub forums and I just can't set my eyes on it. Anyway.... The ones below are the one's i'm refering to. Basically I have a request for the Genre "Chick Flicks" - Would some one kindly create this genre with a poster and thumb for this category please. Thanks in advance

I'm just playing with the Windows 8/RT app and so far it's beautiful. I do have one problem though. My TV series' are broken up into two collections; one for narrative series, and one for documentary series. For the icons in the narrative section, I am using Demonseed's TV collection icons, which are (roughly) a 16:9 ratio. For the icons in the documentary series section, I use a poster icon with a different ratio. This is causing some inconsistency as the tablet application consolidates the collections into a single section. So, two questions: 1. Is it possible to separate the complete collections into smaller collections (Documentary Series, Narrative series, Animated series, etc.)? 2. If that is not possible, is there any way to maintain the aspect ratio of the folder.jpg icons? Thanks for a great app.

Is there a location under "ImagesByName" where icons/backgrounds can be set for the Favorite Books, Favorite Movies etc sections located under Favorites view?

Well done.
