JoshuaAJones 54 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) Luke, please throw this towards the bottom of the list. I've noticed that a lot of the screensavers have inordinate amounts of white near the bottom corner. Sometimes, I can't even see the name of the movie. I would like to see the titles in another color, perhaps Emby green by default. Just a suggestion... I don't think that a color wheel or random color changes would be necessary. Just something a little more noticeable. Edited February 24, 2016 by JoshuaAJones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jscoys 143 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 In fact you will have the same problem with green backgrounds. My suggestion is to add borders on letters displayed (black borders for instance). With that the problem is permanently resolved.

JoshuaAJones 54 Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share Posted February 26, 2016 Fluorescent Emby Green is pretty noticeable. But I'd enjoy the outlined lettering as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mentasm 43 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Why not just use the movie/show logo instead of the title text like the emby for wmc screensaver does. It looks so much better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koleckai Silvestri 1150 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Just make sure all your content has a valid thumbnail. Usually you just have to paste the clearart on top of your favorite backdrop to accomplish this. Then you don't have to worry about the white text at all.

jscoys 143 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 One more thing to consider: logos are not localized in all languages... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deathsquirrel 741 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Why not just use the movie/show logo instead of the title text like the emby for wmc screensaver does. It looks so much better Logos are also often just white too so that will just change what movies have the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mentasm 43 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I can't think of one logo/clearart I've seen recently which is just white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdrianW 1053 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 EMC uses logos if they exist otherwise white text - but in both cases it has some light grey shadowing behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deathsquirrel 741 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I can't think of one logo/clearart I've seen recently which is just white I just did a quick search for logo.png on a drive with about 250 movies & about 15% of the results were hard or impossible to read on a white background. Your mileage may very of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
