steve@moubray.com 1 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 I'm sure this is covered somewhere but I checked the Wiki and did a search but can't find it. How do I install a new skin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14862 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 There aren't any publicly available ones yet (stay tuned). Once there are, there will be a catalog in the app (or you will be able to install from an url). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve@moubray.com 1 Posted August 21, 2016 Author Share Posted August 21, 2016 Is there a way to modify the one that exists? I'm somewhat competent in HTML, CSS and XML.My family is having a hard time adjusting to Emby Theater and I may have to try something else. They've been using the original Media Browser since the early days and that interface was really great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36887 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Yes: http://emby.media/community/index.php?/blog/1/entry-302-learn-how-to-create-skins-for-emby-theater/ Although please leave more specific feedback as well so that we can improve the default skin experience.

steve@moubray.com 1 Posted August 21, 2016 Author Share Posted August 21, 2016 Thank you. I will play with this. In the original version of MB: The first thing displayed was pages of new additions When we selected an option we could display lots of posters to fit lots of movies and series on the screen When selecting a TV series, all seasons were quickly displayed These are things my family seems to miss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36887 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 The first one is most likely due to library setup. Did you setup your libraries with the Unset content type? You will get more features using the dedicated Movie and TV types. The third one unfortunately is just a delicate balance between displaying metadata vs. just raw navigation. If you want to get to the season list all you have to do is click the down button, or just jump right to your next up episode which is displayed on the series screen.

mentasm 43 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) Maybe you can check out the skin I have tweaked. http://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/36440-forking-and-editting-the-default-skin/ I've made it so that the spotlight tile shows latest additions and have moved the latest episodes and movies sections to the 2nd position on the movie and TV home pages. You might be able to take some of what I've done and keep tweaking. I have basically zero css or js skills. Happy to discuss via PM or in here or in my thread if you want Edited August 22, 2016 by mentasm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36887 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Yea I think it would be fantastic if you guys would work together. Feel free to ask some of those questions you sent me via PM out here in the open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
