The mistery of missing back arrow

[kikinjo 162]

 Ok i finaly pinpointed when is back arrow disappearing, to reproduce do few times this:

 

 Open tv library or movie library, select genres, pick one genre, pick movie, go back (if there is back arrow), go for another movie,..no back arrow anymore.

 

 Can someone please look into this, thank you.

 

 Also would be possible to introduce a right click on mouse as back action (when under mouse there is no object, like in kodi)

 

Cheers

Are you doing this with a mouse or keyboard? In my testing all with a mouse it seems to be OK.

[kikinjo 162]

Mouse only.

 

Windows 10 (V1607), Emby Theater latest, TV mode in Theater, Windows resolution 1920x1200.

Happens all the time.

Is this the store app or desktop app?

[kikinjo 162]

Desktop. Sorry for not mentioning it before.

I have also noticed this on Emby Theater on my Windows 10 Desktop machine.

I navigate by mouse.

 

The few times I paid attention to what I was doing, I had clicked into a TV series in my favorites, then clicked the Next Up, watched the episode, and when it was done when it kicked me back to the episode screen there was no arrow.

 

I JUST had it happen now.  I went into a TV Series in my Favorites list that had 1 unwatched show.  I clicked the Checkmark to mark them all watched.  I clicked the back arrow to take me back to my Favorites list.  I went into another series that had many unwatched shows.  The TV Series screen does not have the back arrow.

 

 

On the desktop I can hit ESC to go back so it's not as bad.  However, I can also state that it happens on the PS4 as well, and it's a real PITA to go back without the arrow on the PS4.

 

I just went through about 20 of my TV Series.  I noticed that all of the ones with no arrow, also do not have the logo at the top either.  The logo.png file is in the folder though.

I coped the logo.png from one show where it appeared correctly, and pasted it into the folder where it wasn't appearing.  It still did not appear.

I put a 1 pixel logo.png file in the folder and now it is displaying the logo and arrow (though it left of the screen for a few seconds while I'm typing here the arrow disappears, as soon as I mouse back over to the window it appeared again).

 

Hopefully that will help better direct you to where the issue may be.

Ok, I looked at a couple series where the logo and arrow work, and the logo.png is 800x310 @ 300 pixels/inch, and between 54k and 164k

The two shows that have logo.png and are NOT displaying them are also 800x310 @ 300pi and are 76k and 84k.

I see no reason for them not to be working.

I resized them to 774x300, and now they work.

 

I dropped the 1px logo.png in the few series that didn't have a logo.png file and now the arrow appears fine.

 

Here is my 1px file CLICK --=> <=--

 

 

Edit:  I found several logo files that are 72 pixels/inch.  One was over 700k though...

 

I also noticed that if you go into a show that doesn't have a logo, then if you go into a show that does have a logo, it sometimes will not display the logo.

Have you tried moving the mouse? that should get it to show the back arrow.
