Jdiesel 1114 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Is there a technical reason or is it a design decision that multiple libraries are lumped together as either TV, Movies, or Music on the Roku app? I have a separate library for 3D movies and Kid's TV shows that get lumped in with the rest of my TV shows and movies. That is one thing I miss when going back to the Roku app after using the Android TV app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37065 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Are you talking about the new Roku app? It should be following the same organizational layout as all of the other apps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37065 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Can you give a specific example of where you feel they are lumped together? thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14913 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 You should be seeing the exact same libraries in the Roku app that you do in the Android TV one. The grouping is controlled in your settings in the web app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jdiesel 1114 Posted August 6, 2017 Author Share Posted August 6, 2017 I just had another look at the Android TV app and you are right, it is the same as the Roku app. Maybe I am going crazy but I swear it had separate lines for each library. I guess I will rephrase my question, will the Roku app get separate lines for "Up Next" and "Recently Added" per library rather then just for TV and Movies like the web app does?

ebr 14913 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Right now, we are consolidating those items in the TV apps because breaking them out could create a whole lot of rows that would need to be scrolled through to get to other items. In the web app, scrolling isn't as big of a deal because you can do it very quickly with a mouse. When all you have is a remote control, we try to limit the amount of navigation required to reach everything. You can see scoped information inside of the library views.
