Happy2Play 8355 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Are these from a Mixed Content Library? But sound like this topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy2Play 8355 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 That does not mean much as you only have Shows in the Collection and If you add a Movie that would change. What is the library content type those items came from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the library content type those items came from? Huh?! If I add other things it would show other things, is that what you are saying? Shows come from TV. Does Emby list as Shows if they come from another library Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8355 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Have yet to make a scroll collection for Shows though. I did reproduce with Movies in other topic. Still testing trying to reproduce in 4.8.5.0. 1 minute ago, jiggity said: Does Emby list as Shows if they come from another library Collection items can come from any library.

You asked "What is the library content type those items came from?" I responded "Shows come from TV. Does Emby list as Shows if they come from another library" You said "That does not mean much as you only have Shows in the Collection and If you add a Movie that would change" I told you "If I add other things it would show other things" Obviously collections can hold any content type. What is your point here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8355 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Talking is circle with no true answer. Collections item come from where or what every library content type you add them from. But still unable to reproduce your issue in 4.8.5.0 so either something changed and you have delete and recreate the collection or there is a specific variable to the setup that I do not know how to reproduce. I can reproduce on Movies in Beta but not TV. So it will come back to how do we reproduce this issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8355 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 (edited) @Lukeis there some legacy setting that would cause scroller in Collections (does not appear to be display or resolution). As I have only found one library so far to cause it for Movies on one server but not another with the exact same media and library content type. Unable to reproduce at all for Shows. Will try to compare api library configs on these libraries per server. Edited April 23 by Happy2Play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexerm 30 Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 Not sure if this is jiggity's case, but one thing that causes unwanted horizontal scrolling (though it is all unwanted to me) while showing only one media type is mixing Movies with Seasons (not entire Shows). Though, of course, the Seasons do no show after this update, either: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But will guess existing may be broken requiring recreation, but just a guess as the view is already written. But still don't know for sure how to make one that scrolls and one that does not/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jiggity 26 Posted May 6 Author Share Posted May 6 (edited) I can't do much with my library as the discogs plug is back to being broken and it is taking 10+ hours to do a library scan So until that is fixed, no Or until the way music files are ingested is overhauled, no Edited May 6 by jiggity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a poor UI/UX design 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8355 Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 Mixing Shows and Movies does not create scroller but adding Seasons does. So I guess it comes down to specifics as it is dependent on what you are putting in a Collection. Movies and Shows no scroller anything else cause scrollers. But yes previously I could make this happen on Movies but not now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collections are supposed to be content agnostic, and there is no design reason for them to be horizontal scrolling for any platform. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of us are quite unhappy with this sudden design change. At best, we've just gotten a vague "more options to control this are possible for future updates" response. The Android TV client did it right: while it defaults to this new view, it also has an "All Items" button to enable to old view.

Probably the one that has you needlessly scrolling horizontally when webpages essentially have unlimited vertical space. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the answer is obvious. It's the app managed by the dev who continues to ignore users. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, this has been an issue for years where one app does one thing and the others do not. So, everyone wants to compare Android to everything else. There is no universal dev standpoint across all platforms just similarities. So, if the time was taken to add to one then why not all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
