Bottles51 70 Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 (edited) Currently when i play music from my playlists and go to now playing no backdrop is shown. Before 4.6 update i had backdrops. I have re scanned library and made sure i was using a self populated playlist and not a smart playlist (Just in case there is a compatibility bug) . I have checked on PC and on android NVIDIA Shield, both no backdrop. I Have made sure that the artist playing had a backdrop. Hope this is a quick fix and thanks for all the hard work.

Luke 38954 Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 Hi, in my testing they seem to be working just fine.
Bottles51 70 Posted May 23, 2021 Author Posted May 23, 2021 Would you have any solutions for me? I just created a new test playlist with same outcome.
Bottles51 70 Posted May 24, 2021 Author Posted May 24, 2021 I use Emby on all my devices in the house to listen to music. Before the update when i played one of my playlists and was on the now playing screen there was an artist backdrop. There is an artist backdrop when i go and play a song by itself but that defeats the purpose of my playlists. I have put endless hours into labeling and making sure music is tagged right. Pre update I even took the time to drop in missing backdrops so that there was not a blank TV screen or monitor while that song was playing. So to sum it up when i pick a playlist and hit shuffle the music starts. Then I see a page with albums and what is up next. Behind that used to be a backdrop. After a min that drops off to what is now petty much a blank screen.

Bottles51 70 Posted May 25, 2021 Author Posted May 25, 2021 That is the same device a shield. The first example is when I play a playlist. The second example is when I go to artist and play song. There is no backdrop when I play a playlist and there was pre update.
Bottles51 70 Posted May 25, 2021 Author Posted May 25, 2021 The results are the same when I test on my windows PC.

Bottles51 70 Posted May 28, 2021 Author Posted May 28, 2021 Hi Luke, Have you had any luck with what is going on with playlists. Am i the only one having this problem?
Luke 38954 Posted May 29, 2021 Posted May 29, 2021 Hi, I'm not sure yet but we'll have a 4.6.2 update soon so please try that once available. Thanks.
Bottles51 70 Posted June 1, 2021 Author Posted June 1, 2021 So I am running 4.6.2 now and the results are the same. I have deleted all playlists and started a new test playlist. It does seem that some (and i do mean a few) songs i pick works. Also on the playlist page it does not show the artist under the song. The songs in which there is a backdrop has the artist as it is supposed to.

Bottles51 70 Posted June 3, 2021 Author Posted June 3, 2021 Luke, all is well. I waited 24rs and tried again, everything seems to be working as it is supposed to now. Thanks
