CBers 6766 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Had time to upgrade to latest m version. Running it against latest Dev Server Version 3.0.5801.703. Weird one, On home screen and Tools Menu lots of my libraries are doubled. Also they are not named in app (see second pic). For some reason (or change in server) the app just shows the library type instead of name. At least you get a HOME SCREEN on "m" against Dev server !! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrostByte 5041 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 (edited) I think we've come full circle with the 3 rows of icons now Anyhow: can the description for a Collection (not the description of the individual movies in the collection, but he Collection description itself) be added in once you click on a Collection? Then when you click on a movie you get the normal movie description. Most Collections only have a few movies and right now I get a big screen for LOTR and just 3 icons and a bunch of wasted space at the bottom 1.0.0nThree rows of Movies/TV Shows per screen.

Ultroman 87 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 (edited) I'm on N with the newest beta server. Loving most of it. Great job! On the 3-row views I'm seeing a lot of the posters having less height than some of the other posters. When I highlight the less high ones, there's a gap between the tops and bottoms of them and the white border. Also, why can we not have nice things, and move the posters up, and have the title and maybe 1-2 lines of the description at the bottom? Or maybe move the posters down, and make room for a title and some description at the top? Especially with the low resolution, I'm having a hard time making out several of my titles from their posters. EDIT: Oh, I see. On the TV and Movie views there are All, Genres etc. at the top. Only in the media folder views we have lots of space at the top. Or will the 3-row views become optional? It looks beautiful, but I'm really missing a bit of basic metadata about the titles. One more thing. A good deal of my titles cannot be paused. Especially titles in my Home Videos view. Also, despite being MKV, MPEG-4, DD5.1, which my TV can play natively, it transcodes the titles in my Home Video folder.

When I highlight the less high ones, there's a gap between the tops and bottoms of them and the white border. Have you checked the source poster to see if it maybe isn't the max size? The ones I have that don't fill the square are not quite 1000x1500 Or will the 3-row views become optional? That's already in the options (minus the details) put there by chessdragon136. Change the user settings to large icons for movies/episodes and you should get a 2x7 of very large icons instead of a 3x9 configuration Edited November 19, 2015 by FrostByte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5041 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 The screen saver turns black (with date at bottom) and stops rotating after awile when showing photos. Doesn't lock up though, and can hit 'Return' to exit screen saver back to main. This just started with the 'n' release. I am not seeing this with my HTS which is still on 'm'. I'll do up a bug report later tonight after playing with it some more, but it's done this several times now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we still have the movie synopsis displayed with the new 3 row display? If not, I'd like to have 2x9 with synopsis. Is that still possible? .

Do we still have the movie synopsis displayed with the new 3 row display? No, I don't think there is enough room when viewing in 3 rows. However, there may be a little room to add something when viewing with the large icons option set. They aren't added in either view right now though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBers 6766 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 No synopsis seems a backwards step to me. Would like to see a synopsis displayed as you highlight movies etc. Do people really prefer 3x9 without synopsis more than 2x9 with the synopsis being displayed? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBers 6766 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Just updated to "n". I'll raise a bug report for this if new, but I have a new TV show which doesn't currently have any images, but does have a season folder and 4 episodes. The problem is, when I enter the season folder, none of the episodes are listed. If I goto TV, latest, then the TV show, I just get a blank page. Is this a known bug? Definitely don't like the lack of a synopsis in the 3 row view. Would like to see an option of 2x9 with synopsis, or 3x9 without synopsis in the settings please. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I am having the same problem with two new series. No episodes show up on the season-view, but the number of episodes is shown in the series-view where you pick the seasons. The episodes show up fine in other clients. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmcg 874 Posted November 20, 2015 Author Share Posted November 20, 2015 Ok, I hear you. This is still a community app and I did post a screen shot and invite comment before this change went forward. I've equalised the horizontal and vertical spacing in 9x3 view to create just enough vertical space to slip the series/movie title and basic info line back in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBers 6766 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Not sure if it's possible, but could you do a pop-up like in the Roku app? I'll try and find a screenshot if I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
