NJ RadioGuy 2 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Hi all, So far my installation of MB-C is working solidly but I'd like to jazz it up a little at the launch screen. I use the Classic theme and for the most part it's serviceable and, in fact, I like how it displays coverflow for movies, TV shows and so on. But on the main screen, it's downright boring. In MB-2 I had a nice still image that appeared on the left side when "movies" was highlighted at the bottom, another for home movies, TV series and so on. Here's what I'm getting now, and frankly it's dull. I'd love to get those icons or custom .jpg images back for collections. I know I didn't delete them (although they may be tricky to find); I just can't figure out where to set them. Here's a screengrab and you'll see what I'm talking about. Any ideas? Thanks!

yardameus 220 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I'm pretty sure that you can store them where you want, and then just go into the web client metadata manager, and select each category and upload an image. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ RadioGuy 2 Posted July 27, 2014 Author Share Posted July 27, 2014 OK, that seems to have worked; THANKS! Another related question, though. How do I change the order of my views? I have HOME MOVIES, MOVIES, MUSIC, TV series showing, in that order. I'd like to re-order them so TV is first, then movies, then home video then music.

Redshirt 1487 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) In the same editor, change the sort name. That name isn't displayed and you can precede it one numbers to get the order you want. Edited July 27, 2014 by Redshirt 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesegeezer 3087 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 This link here should provide you with all the info you need to get your MB install looking like it was http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/topic/730-mb3-server-using-the-web-client/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redshirt 1487 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Wow it's surprising to see how outdated those images in the kb are. It's only been 8-12 months since they were taken. Although the images are outdated the workflow is still pretty much the same. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ RadioGuy 2 Posted July 27, 2014 Author Share Posted July 27, 2014 OK, got the re-order part down pat but I'm having a real devil of a time understanding 6A/6B, and the whole "collections" thing. From that link, go to message number 2. I tried to make a collection of ANIMATED but now find (a) I can't browse for titles, only do and actual search on a specific title, and ( I can't delete a collection. How can I just browse through all my titles and pick-and-choose which ones go in which collections? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
