iamthedude 5 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Hi there, the Kodi App for Windows and AndroidTV has a built-in zoom function for photos. So, if I press 1, 2, 3 ... on a keyboard or compatible keyboard app, the photo zooms in respectively. Could we get that for the Emby App on Android TV? That way, by pressing the numbers - let's say on the Nvidia App for the Shield - the photos can zoom in accordingly. Or maybe we could do the same with the pop-up keyboard in the emby phone app. Apologies, if this has already been requested. I tried the search, but only found topics regarding zoom not related to this. many thanks and regards iamthedude 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Shield remote does not have number keys... We would have to find some other way to make this function available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't mean the physical remote, but the NVIDIA Shield remote app for ios/android phones. Or any other remote app with a soft keyboard for that matter Maybe this could be implemented into the Emby iOS/Android phone app. Really - I think - all that would have to be done is implement a function where key presses of numbers on a soft keyboard will zoom in accordingly. For example, the shield TV remote app does the same thing on a number press that a physical keyboard would. So we could press 1,2,3,4, on the soft keyboard of the ShieldTV phone app and the photo would zoom accordingly. I hope that makes it more clear. many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydlexius 238 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Key mappings are always cool for the power user, but I don't think we should ignore on-screen options as well. A common motif I see in galleries is a scaled view with a magnifying glass in one corner that, when pressed toggles to a full-sized (1:1 pixel mapping) of the image that you can then pan around using the keyboard arrows, or drag-click with your mouse, or touch-drag with your touchscreen device. Some other motifs will have similar magnifying glasses for zoom in and zoom out, and possibly another for zoom reset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamthedude 5 Posted September 13, 2022 Author Share Posted September 13, 2022 I’m all for it, it’s a great idea. I don’t think it matters how it’s achieved. It’d be great if we could just zoom in on a photo while viewing on a TV screen. I’m sure there are plenty of ways to achieve that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
