skank 81 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Kodi jarvis supports animated gifs.. but does emby? How to setup this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
im85288 1493 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 It's still too early for this, if they get added to fanart tv as suggested here: http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=215727&pid=2163279#pid2163279 Then maybe Emby will pull them in. For now you would need to add them manually, but nice concept Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skank 81 Posted November 19, 2015 Author Share Posted November 19, 2015 so if i add them manually, kodi will use it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
im85288 1493 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 so if i add them manually, kodi will use it? Yes it will, simply change the artwork manually (i.e. on the Info panel you can change artwork) and change the poster to use your downloaded gif file...piece of cake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelblue05 4130 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Hopefully we can start seeing support for this server side soon If you manually modify the artwork in Kodi, make sure you never update the content in the server metadata manager, otherwise I believe it will overwrite the manual changes and reapply the artwork found on your server.

im85288 1493 Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 I will try I'm not sure what skin your using but all should support changing the artwork in the info screen. So go to the info screen of the movie your trying to change, select the choose art option and change the poster to the one you want to use. That should be all that is needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skank 81 Posted November 22, 2015 Author Share Posted November 22, 2015 Ok i did some more tests its not skin related with iso files, i do see the gif files with bdmv folders i dont see them cause kodi auto goes into the bdmv folder... but thats one too far for ex \oblivion\poster.jpg \oblivion\oblivion.gif but kodi auto goes into \oblivion\bdmv\ so it cant find it, it cant go up the folder either i only can chose: - local file - current file - item map, so in item map i can browse to the smb path, but only from \oblivion\bdmv\ and farther on not up the tree... how come? also if i put the gif into \oblivion\bdmv\oblivion.gif i can select it, but the gif file doesnt work!!!! its static! (over smb) if i put the gif file local... the gif file does work !!! why is that? dont they work over smb? i cant put them local cause its android device and not much space... help needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skank 81 Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 Why doesnt the server support this? If it would.. it would rock What's the hold up for it? Anyway without that support, i still need help to set it up on my own (away from emby then) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
