sfwood 0 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Simple question I hope, but I couldn't find an answer with any searches.. When I load the Emby live tv guide on my Fire TV, it shows only 5 lines worth of channels. This is a very inefficient use of space and detracts from the usefulness of the guide. Is there a way to reduce the text size or hide the big description at the top so more channels can be displayed? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denz 426 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Most of the emby apps are unfortunately like that. I agree with you completely that there is far too much wasted space. There is plenty of room for two more rows I have showed comparisons with WMC how you can have many rows and it doesn't detract at all but nothing come out of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maegibbons 1267 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 I agree. More work needs to be done on the TV Guide presentation options. Krs Mark Sent from my SM-N976B using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceboy 2493 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 I used the hack in wmc to have 10 rows on screen. Pretty sure you could have up to 12. It was still very usable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was still very usable Not sure I understand this reply. Is this a proposed practical solution or a confirmation to devs that more lines works visually? I'm not using WMC; is there a WMC hack that also works in Emby? I'm talking about the Emby Fire TV app running on Fire TV. The Emby server is on a Win 10 machine on the network, but no WMC is involved. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maegibbons 1267 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 No he is just agreeing that more lines would be good as that is how he used to like it in WMC with a hack applied. No hacking to do here. Have to wait on the devs to improve things. Krs Mark Sent from my SM-N976B using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyDing 56 Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 +1. I'd rather have more guide data viewable. If I spot something of interest I can select it to see the details. No need to see the details while I'm scrolling through the channels. Please put this on your change list. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denz 426 Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 I hope they condense it to fit more lines and it will serve us better and it will look much better than it is now. This is a wmc example and this guide looks way better than emby's. Unfortunately all the emby apps are using android tv guide as a template which to me doesn't look good. I think by now you know which channels are hd and which shows are repeats. It is still unbelievable that at this age we still have sd channels.
