More items in Latest

[arrbee99 1704]

More items in the Latest row(s) would be nice. I just added a bunch of new TV shows / series and 16 isn't enough. If I click on Latest TV,  it goes to Suggestions, which is useless, I would like more Latest TV not Continue Watching or Latest Episodes. I can sort TV by date added but that doesn't show new series added to existing ones (series 5 of The Expanse) for example.

Similar for Movies please.

You would want to sort by "Latest episode date added" and then you'd have desired result in TV library, unrestricted by Latest row limitation.

Thanks.

Think I've asked this before ?

Think you told me this before as well...Oh well, may I'll remember it this time (but probably not)

[GrimReaper 4036]

LOL possible, but I don't mind, you know how they say: "Repetition is the mother of learning..."

For the web client you can edit the homesections.js and change the limit 16 for Latest but applies to all Latest rows.

Whichever one is in your Emby system folder that you are using.  That structure looks wrong.

C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\system\dashboard-ui\modules\homesections\homesections.js (default)

Y:\Emby-Server\system\dashboard-ui\modules\homesections\homesections.js (portable, but root folder can be anything)

Thanks. Found and works

Where would this be in a container?

Look at the application path near the top of a server log as I don't know platform path.

[TXK57 36]

Thank you, this is the path /system/dashboard-ui/modules/homesections/homesections.js

[TXK57 36]

Is there a way that we could get this as a setting across the board with apps and everything. If not having a custom number in settings then just a global increase?

I know we all have our gripes with team orange, but their limit is set at like 140 or 160 items. This is also nice when you display other collections on the home like trending or holiday collections.

[Luke 39847]

We'll look at improving it. Thanks.

[arrbee99 1704]

Anyone doing this and not working ? I tried updating Homesections.js on .52 beta to 64 items and it still only shows 16.

And obviously now I've asked its decided to work. Seems to need more than just restarting the server, either shutdown and start or re-booting the PC.

Probably browser caching.

Can't the app(s) just request more items as you click to the right? Isn't that what's happening when we click down on the wall of posters on the actual library page? The items get requested and loaded as you click, correct? Couldn't the same thing happen on the main menu, just horizontally?

HI, yes this is something that can be added. Thanks.

I see this topic is 21 months old. How are these things prioritized, and is there any kind of reporting on the status of these requested fixes or enhancements?

I really like the "Latest" feature on the Home screen — there just are not enough, 18 videos and 16 photos, can this be increased to, perhaps, 50 of each. (Or better yet, could it be User Definable through Settings?)

Is there any update as to when, or if, this may be implemented?

Hi.  You should see labels on the topics in here as "In-Progress" when it is being worked on and "Completed" when released.  Thanks.

+1 for wanting to add more items in the "latest" list. I'd also love it if we could have more suggestions in the "because you watched" sections, and be able to have more of those "because you watched" sections. When searching for something to watch I like searching through suggestions more than going through an alphabetized list.

[sCampi85 1]

Example: in DS Video there is no limit of new currently added movies/updated series etc. They are just shown in the overview in a row as  added.

It would be great to have a option to modify "neueste Medien" to enlarge the number of shown new media files from currently 16 to more: 20, 50, 100, no limit.

So there is also a chance to check the completeness of new added media (Filmpost, Name, etc.). Users see also newest Data more than number 16.

Of couse there should be a Link to the "created libraries" so you can choose for each individually.

Everybody using Emby could decide so on their own, if they want to use it or not.

I would love to see this too

[Thecatch20two 3]

Can we PLEASE see some kind of option to increase the number of "Latest Media" we are able to have in lineup? Most days I add 30+ new films to my server and my kids end up missing alot of them when they're looking for new stuff to watch. At their age, if it's not on the main screen, they're not going to dig into 3000+ movies to find them.

Thanks!

I was able to find this file and opened it with notepad to edit but where do I find where to make the change from 16 to say 100? The whole file is just a bunch of gibber jabber to me ;).
