Multi genres are no longer displayed as such

[CharleyVarrick 283]

In detail page, we used to have multi genres displayed appropriately.

Now, it only display a single genre (first alphabetical), even though more are present in metadata.

Before (captured 2022)

Now

Settings>Display, you can select how many Genres you prefer displayed on top. 

Regardless of that setting, Media Info section at the bottom of the Detail page will list all of them.

Order is an issue as eventually it becomes alphabetical if ever saved in the UI.  Pretty sure there are other topics.  Yep your topic as you get initial provider or embedded order then Emby will reorder on any resave/edit.

But number of displayed genre is a user option now.

Grim beat me to it

Looks like order is no longer changed in 4.8+ with the addition of drag and drop reordering.

I did play with this option, it does work but feels a little "stiff".

I suggested that feature a while ago for actor list, because I was finding occasional or one-off actors listed before the main cast.

You should be able to reorder genres and cast members.

Yes thank you, maybe the coding for genres and actors drag ordering was shared (or very similar), is what I'm thinking.
