hoopsdavis 21 Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 I'd like to see the Movie, TV Show and Collections have the same layout as the "Suggestions" option. It would be nice to see the better layout options. Emby still appears to be a background media database. Lets change it to a more proimary media interface. 1
Luke 39008 Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 Hi there, can you please describe more about what you mean? Thanks.

Sure, I'd like to see a more horizantal layout with movie details when highlighted opposed to the vertical wall. I'd just like to see one line of movies on the bottom with the movie details above when each movie is highlighted. With just the plot, Genre, Year and rating. A nice clean look without all the extra. similar image attached Edited April 5, 2024 by hoopsdavis
MBSki 1096 Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 Where would you like to see this layout? In a collection, I definitely want to see the items vertically. I could have 100's of items in a collection. I don't want to have to scroll right for that many items.

Luke 39008 Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 Right and that's the issue. It's suitable for a small list such as suggestions, recently added, etc. It's not really suited for your entire library where you also need to sort and filter.

I'm not asking to changed the interface, just another layout option. For those who like the original, they'll have it but for those who like something different, another option would be good to have.

MBSki 1096 Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 Why would you want a horizontal scroll for an entire library? I get added an "enhanced view", but horizontal in a library where there will be 100's of items doesn't make sense.

I'm assuming you don't like the horizontal look?

arrbee99 1675 Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 You're both right. Personally I prefer the old Android way where it filled the screen with posters but still scrolled horizontally... 1
Happy2Play 9229 Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 Assuming it was a virtual scroller and not limited like most scrollers are but personally don't like horizontal scrollers 1000s if items or even 100s. 1
arrbee99 1675 Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 (edited) And on a not very related note, I really wish when you click on Latest Movies on the Home page (above the horizontal row of latest movies) it went to a page with more latest movies, and not just going to the Suggestions tab. EDIT - OK, feature request time Edited April 5, 2024 by arrbee99 1

That comes back to what is Latest? An item you just added no matter the release date or something actually new per release date? But you can always have your library already sorted that way.
arrbee99 1675 Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 .....welllll, I though it just comes down too the list on the Home page for latest stuff is limited to 20 (if you're lucky), so it'd be nice to go to a page with a lot more showing.

Hi Luke, have you considered my request to have the option of showing all movies in the "Suggestions" layout format? I understand some may not like seeing their full movie library in this format but for me its much better than the library view we currently have. Isn't it time to provide options? Others who don't like it can view their movie library in the original format. Please! Also, where are we on the terrible trailers format. As mentioned with this bing included in the paid Premiere service, can we please get a fix on this. Watching movies with family and the trailers are very unviewable is a bit crappy and please don't provide the option of turning off trailers when its part of the paid service. Has any progress been made? Anything the users can do you help test of research? If so just provide what research is needed and I'll take initiative to get some results to help.
Luke 39008 Posted May 13, 2024 Posted May 13, 2024 Hi, yes more options to control the layout are certainly possible for future updates. Thanks. 1
