BillOatman 502 Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 (edited) I was under the impression from another thread that when Emby recorded from live tv, that the icon used was from the xml programme entry if it was available. I recorded something today. This was in its programme entry: Quote <icon src="http://iptvboss.xyz/logos/JarvisSports%20Logos/BuffaloBills.png"></icon> This is in the m3u entry given to Emby: Quote tvg-logo="http://iptvboss.xyz/logos/JarvisSports%20Logos/BuffaloBills.png" This is what's at that URL: This is what shows up in Emby for the recording: I think its supposed to be Bill Gates but the majority of the icon is very light and did not photograph well. So is there a bug, or if not what actually is used for the recording icons? Thanks! Edited December 26, 2021 by BillOatman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37156 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Is that the completed recording? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14947 Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Hi. That is probably a screen grab from the video itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The video is a football game, The beginning does not have that frame anywhere. Seems to be doing something with the name "Bill". But I was told elsewhere the icon would be used from the programme entry if it existed. So is what happened a bug or is the programme entry icon not used and there is no way to get a icon that makes sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14947 Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 I think once it is a recording in your library, then the normal metadata fetchers are going to take over so it is probably just a misidentification issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprising, it is a show name made up by an application of mine so no way Emby could identify it via metadata fetcher. So the programme entry icon is not used at all and there is no way to have the recording use it and fall back to a fetcher if needed?

Luke 37156 Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Once it gets added to your library, it will look just like any other library item, so that means metadata/image fetchers come into play, as well as what images you may have assigned at the series level.

Unfortunate but it is what it is. Thanks for the clarification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
