OnyxUK 78 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 (edited) Hey Guys i have had a bit of an idea and would like to know what others think and if it would even be possible for the future ? This is a for the home pages for quick genre selection and searching options. the would save having to go into the movies / Tv shows selection to then search for genres that way. in total it takes 3 main clicks to get to your film selection the way it current is, with this option it would be just 1 click being right on the home page. Hopefully the images can give a bit more of a better example of this Hope everyone likes and would love to know your opinions too.

ebr 14902 Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Hi. On the home screen, those genres would be for everything in your library? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Ebr, Yeah i guess they would be, so the exact same as how the genres work within emby now but just placed on the main screen with the option to still have them in the current position they are in so if people still would like to change the artwork for them they can do so. Best way i can think to explain it would be if you have horror and si-fi movies just show those genres unless say an action movie was then added this genre would then be shown along with horror and si-fi.

I think that makes a lot more sense than a global genre that would give you all types of items lumped together. However, something like this may be possible in the future (probably via smart views of some sort). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
