NeverExists 19 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 I find it would look a lot better when you're on the TV Show detail screen for it to have a gradient blur with the faded image of the fanart in the corner, kind of like plex. Having just the fanart looks way to busy, and I find it hard to enjoy my library with such an ugly screen. I always feel my enjoyment go down when I am on these screens. They don't look tidy and elegant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimReaper 3269 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 (edited) You can achieve something similar with custom CSS, one already made example here: Edited May 24, 2022 by GrimReaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrimReaper 3269 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Ah, you should've mentioned that in the OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeverExists 19 Posted May 24, 2022 Author Share Posted May 24, 2022 (edited) I agree that plex has a cleaner, nicer look b y far. The Emby enhanced home screen looks great, but I miss plex's gradient blur. Its looks more modern. Unfortunately plex does not have the functionality anywhere near what plex Emby has, so Plex is not an option. Seems they've abandoned updating the apps.

GrimReaper 3269 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Tbh have no idea how does Plex look like, maybe you should post a screenshot here so members can get some idea regarding what you're taking about and potentially lend support to your FR?

arrbee99 1551 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 I you mean the backdrop, no thanks, am a big fan of backdrops. Personally, I do all I can to remove stuff that gets in the way of backdrops (well, in a browser anyway). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The css you linked looks fantastic! unfortunately i can count on one hand how many times the emby tv app has had any visual updates in the last few years.

So everybody is happy. Options are always good. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrbee99 1551 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Options are indeed always good. Though for no particular reason I do like to illustrate my point slightly (in Firefox not on a Shield), but still (love it) - 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arrbee99 1551 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Episodes look fine to me. Or they do in a browser (with a bit of css anyway). Can't get near our Shield to check at the moment, but they seemed fine as I recall. But we like different things. All part of life's rich tapestry etc. And as you say, options...

They don't look tidy and elegant. I agree. I also think this is important in music libraries. Blurring album art as background looks great in the car on Sirius radio etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That noone obviously made a connection to, as it concerns WebUI while you specifically referenced Nvidia Shield - Android TV - as client app in question.

Can you show a screen shot of the screen in Emby you are talking about? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
