hjason7812 23 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I was wondering if there is a way to change the look of the photos in the screenshot through cover art plugin? Because i really would like to be able to change them they look all blah compared to the rest of the pics and thumbs and so on. Could someone please let me know if there is an easy way to do this or the person who created the cover art plugin please implement these to be allowed to get changed. thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimReaper 3226 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 You can select style in Plugin settings>select Profile>Treatments>Thumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope doesn't work for those particular pictures. It's the only ones that aren't in the plug in to be able to get changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimReaper 3226 Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 It does, but there are only three treatments you can choose from. And you can have indicator overlays on movies, not TV shows, though, as episodes show series thumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thin thumbs changes is the people in the shows and movies nothing else because I went through everything and changed everything and nothing changes those two sections Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8138 Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Looking at images in first post, I believe the issue is you do not have Thumb/landscape images, they appear to be fallback Backdrop images so they are not treated with CA. If you chose edit images on one of the Movies or Series you do not have a Thumb image correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 36879 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Right, CoverArt doesn't process backdrops because they tend to be extremely large and that can cause major performance problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CoverArt plug-in does not provide images. It just gives "treatments" to the ones you have. There are many options of obtaining images in the Emby Server but not all items will have all image types available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8138 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Currently they only come from FanArt.tv, but will be expanded to TMDB. You need to ensure FanArt is enabled as a image fetcher for Series and Movies and you have image type selected. Order will not matter Fetcher settings (ensure Thumb is enabled) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess is a script out there that could copy backdrop to thumb if you just want some random image there instead of properly designed image for that placeholder.

To me that seems like a scan all the library at once is a refresh like you're talking about. But I'll go through each one and refresh then and see if it works.

No as a library scan does not Refresh metadata of any item, it only looks for changes in media that has already been imported. Now a New item yes.

Well after all night long of it running the refresh Metadata on everything it pulled everything in. Thank you for all your help everybody it didn't pull in some quite a few actually idk why but it's Allright. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now a New item yes. After setting up everything when you do a library scan it actually pulls in all the pictures automatically now. I.e the disc image, thumb, and so on are all automatically pulled in with a library scan since it has all been set up. Just in case someone didn't know this information and was looking for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gkiss1977 2 Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Is there any way to add an overlay to Music Albums based on folder naming? For example [A] would add an "Atmos" [M] would add a "Master" image logo overlay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albums are based on metadata not folders so the premise makes that difficult but the Iconic plug-in might have something that will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gkiss1977 2 Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Well it's easy enough to add an Atmos or Master tag into the metadata if that makes it easier. Unfortunately the "Iconic Plug-in" does not work with music only video files, as far as I see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
