Happy2Play 8282 Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Is there a reason Folder treatment was remove in 4.0.27.0? Now My Media has no treatment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14913 Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Yes, sorry. We are trying to simplify things as much as possible to reduce the performance problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One2Go 98 Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I also do have movie folders covered by a top folder, while the movie folders themselves get the artwork treatment, the one that is the top folder does not. Is the removal the explanation for that? I did use a plank PNG template that I had from days gone by and added a rounded corner poster on top of it that it looks similar to the ones that receive the treatment, however they are a bit smaller. Is there any chance to manually make them look like the ones that receive the treatment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reinstalled .25 and dug through the cache folder to saved the treated images. @@ebr Look like if you only use thumb images you can still get cover treatment. If you have a Primary image it will not get treated. CA uninstalled CA installed If I remember correctly if you didn't have a Primary image one gets auto generated and then you loose treatment. Will have to test this again. Edit quick test deleting primary and refreshing library proves above statement. A Primary image is generated. @@Luke Could My Media be configured to thumb image instead of poster/primary?

ebr 14913 Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Okay, so are both of you guys just using a simple treatment like that (meaning no collage or multi-disc stuff)? We could potentially bring those back. It is just the treatments that have to go get children that are a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One2Go 98 Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 No treatment of children, all my movie, TV and episodes get the treatment it is the top folder that does not get a treatment. Top folder Animatrix no treatment, 10 subfolders with different clips get the treatment. So to make the top folder look similar to the other Matrix folders I created manual one that looks similar, very time consuming. Just treat a single top folder that has other movie folders within it.

Happy2Play 8282 Posted April 30, 2017 Author Share Posted April 30, 2017 My Media needs treatment. Looks odd with untreated top section and treated subsection. @@Luke can My Media be changed to Thumbs instead of Primary to allow treatment?

Luke 37066 Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 We used to do that but the image editor defaults to primary, and it just led to troubleshooting over why isn't my custom image showing up, because you were suppose to use the thumb type.

Okay can the server not generate a Primary image if a Thumb is present so we can have treatment in My Media? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37066 Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 I need to understand this a little better. Why wouldn't you just customize the primary instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do as you can see above, but you get a plain square image where TV and Movies get a treatment in subsections Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
