Theater Missing functionalities with web interface

Have you noticed the missing functionalities between the web interface and Emby Theater?

Here are a few I noticed:

1- App Settings, Server, Live TV, +Add TV Source, M3U shows nothing. In a web browser it shows a TV Source Setup page
2- In Home Screen, when hovering any thumb nails, it does not show the green Play arrow as the web interface does

That would be great if you could fix Theater to make it behave as the web interface

Thanks

These functions are all in theater.

 But if your primary input method is a mouse then it sounds like you want to switch out of tv display mode in the app settings. 
 

then you’ll get the play button on hover.

both are set to Auto,
so the web defaults to Desktop where hovering works
Theater defaults to TV where hovering does not work

Right well you don’t typically see that kind of hovering behavior in a TV app. Glad you figured it out.

here's the issues with Display set as Desktop (on my 4K monitor):
-The desktop shows too many thumbnails. Even if I set them bigger, the "More like this" section is still displayed. That causes powering on my standby mechanical HDs (some Movies and TV series are on "sleeping" hard drives). I havent seen an option to turn that section off...

Last annoyance-Thumbnails are very small. Even if I set them bigger, it looks a bit like TV mode but they become too big if I exit full screen
 

An option to turn off "More like this" section would be appreciated

Thanks again for considering Luke
