Apple TV Top Shelf

Continue watching in the home screen, the so-called Top Shelf shows the posters of the TV shows zoomed(?) or with the wrong aspect ratio.

Emby server version: 4.6.2.0

Emby Apple TV version: 1.5.3 (0)

 

Also, is it possible to show the thumb-image instead of the poster? (As shown in the official page Emby for Apple TV)

It’s not the poster zoomed, it’s the thumbnail cropped.

Confirmed. I'm also getting this mess on latest GA release 1.5.3 .

 

Basically, THUMBS.JPG, cropped,  is being used where size of FOLDER.JPG is being used. Folder.jpg is poster size (DVD Cover).

Either change to using Folder.jpg or revert to using thumbs.jpg without cropping. I quite like the sizing difference between TV (thumbs) and Movies (Folder) on top shelf as previously.

Thumbs.jpg is correct for continue watching. The problem is that it is rendering as poster aspect ratio.

Music video items are missing in the Top Shelf. Pet Shop Boys Inner Sanctum is in the Continue watching row:

Pet Shop Boys Inner Sanctum is missing in the Top Shelf, because is a Music Video item:

Yea for some reason we're artificially excluding them, but that can be changed.

No, developers have full control of what is shown in the Top Shelf and how is shown. The big thumbs are the common pattern and I like it for Continue Watching and Next Up items. Infuse  shows covers for all items and Video Music items are there.

Interesting as you have portrait/poster placeholders and everyone else has thumb/landscape placeholders.  Don't think I have ever seen that on that Row.

Merging Next Up and Continue Watching row has broken the Top Shelf. Before that, Continue Watching and Next Up were displayed as thumbs and latest media as posters. After merging, Continue watching are showed as thumbs, Next Up as thumbs cropped as posters and latest media as posters. 

The Apple TV app has not yet been aligned to version 4.6 of the server. Legacy Next up, is not supported yet. I guess by aligning the app with server 4.6, they will fix this.

The development of the application for Apple TV is very slooooow.
