I can not put backdrops on my own, I'm probably doing something wrong. I put in the backdrops folder a background file with the name "backdrops.jpg". For some reason it does not change the background for me

CAPRICORNX10X 68 Posted July 22, 2022 Author Posted July 22, 2022 It may not work because I also have an audio file in the theme-music folder?
roaku 842 Posted July 22, 2022 Posted July 22, 2022 Just now, CAPRICORNX10X said: Yes, each movie with its own folder Try moving the image out of the 'backdrops' folder and into the main movie folder. Then rename the image to 'backdrop.jpg'.

Luke 42078 Posted July 22, 2022 Posted July 22, 2022 There's no such thing as a backdrops folder for images. I would compare your file naming to the guide linked above.

CAPRICORNX10X 68 Posted July 22, 2022 Author Posted July 22, 2022 This is how the folder is organized. The logo and poster appear correctly. As you can see only the background does not

CAPRICORNX10X 68 Posted July 22, 2022 Author Posted July 22, 2022 What I did notice was the emby server web At first the background remains unchanged, after a few seconds when I move the mouse the background changes to my and immediately returns to the previous background
CAPRICORNX10X 68 Posted July 22, 2022 Author Posted July 22, 2022 And in the emby theater there is no change at all.
CAPRICORNX10X 68 Posted July 22, 2022 Author Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) I think emby has a hard to choosing which background to put from the folder the or the defulat from the tmdb site Edited July 22, 2022 by CAPRICORNX10X
GrimReaper 4740 Posted July 22, 2022 Posted July 22, 2022 As far as I know, if you have multiple backdrops, they should rotate/cycle every 30 secs or so; why don't you just delete that extra fanart.jpg?
CAPRICORNX10X 68 Posted July 22, 2022 Author Posted July 22, 2022 The fanart you see is not in my local folder. emby take it from tmdb. And when I put in my local folder file as a backdrop emby do not select it over the fanart. This is what I understood ...
Luke 42078 Posted July 22, 2022 Posted July 22, 2022 Probably it was already downloaded and then you added a local one. Try using the image editor to delete the one you don't want.
CAPRICORNX10X 68 Posted July 22, 2022 Author Posted July 22, 2022 Where was it downloaded? I have no other backdrop file in the folder other than what I put ...
