Tremas 103 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 It's my opinion that playlists (particularly for music) are items that are best navigated with text descriptions rather than images, and there is currently no option for list view in emby theater. The default presentation for playlists in emby theater is a mosaic image of four album covers from items within the playlist. Since most playlists are more than 4 tracks, this does not help discriminate between the items on the screen. What's worse, the text below the image is comparatively small and will be truncated to a fixed size. I understand that Google Play Music uses this type of mosaic image navigation for their web interface. However, I suggest that for playlists on a 10-foot UI, it would be much more efficient to use the "list view" that is available in the emby web interface. If not the default, it should at least be an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37046 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Hi, what screen is this? Playlists should already be in a list view. Do you mean lists of playlists? or the contents of a single playlist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tremas 103 Posted January 8, 2018 Author Share Posted January 8, 2018 (edited) Sorry, I mean the playlist landing screen (list of playlists). Yes, the individual playlist tracks are in list view once you select one. Default TV view in Horizontal mode is the primary problem (not fun to find the playlist you want): Same page in the Vertical view is better, but still not as easy to read as list view (no option in the three-dot menu for list view): List view on web UI with small images and prominent text for each item: Edited January 8, 2018 by Tremas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
