Cropped EPG thumbnails

[robdejon9 0]

Hi all,

 

New Emby user here.

 

On my system, my EPG thumbnails are cropped as per the attached images.

I originally thought that this issue was specific to the ATV client, but tonight I noticed that this can also be observed in the "Schedule" section on the web client.

 

Emby server running on MacOS

ATV client

Chrome browser

IceTV EPG

 

I have already discussed this with the IceTV folks, and at this point they assume that this must be related to how Emby handles the images.

 

Anyone else seen this problem?

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks,

 

Rob

Is your IceTV EPG providing portrait orientated program thumbs ?

 

If yes, then this is a long outstanding issue on the Emby Apple TV client, that it STILL does NOT handle portrait orientated program thumbs from guide provider right.

If not, then it is an other issue the devs have to investigate.

Thanks Senna,

 

Indeed, IceTV provides portrait thumbs.

Guess I won’t be seeing a resolution for this anytime soon then.

 

I’ll try to see if I can get EPG data from an alternative source.

 

Regards,

Improving the EPG for Apple TV is on our list of things to do so we haven't forgotten about it
