Request: configurable metadata selection in Emby Theater queue view


Recommended Posts

I have a fairly large music collection, mostly but not entirely classical or religious in nature, and pretty well tagged using ID3 since I also use MediaMonkey to access the collection on other computers. The left-hand side of play-queue screen shows album art, track title, artist, and album title metadata, ultimately sourced from the tags on the audio files (see attached screenshot).

It would be helpful to be able to configure which metadata are displayed below the album art when in a play-queue view (for example, when using 'shuffle' to play random tracks from my collection). While track title / artist / album are very useful for genres where singer/songwriters are the norm, in a lot of situations when playing older music the Composer tag is more important to me (and less likely to be visible in the album art already.)

Would it be possible to add a user-level setting to specify which metadata are listed, perhaps accessible from the 'cogwheel' settings menu on that page in Emby Theater as well as from the server side?

Hi, yes more options to control this are certainly possible. Thanks for the feedback.
