improve dashboard play progress bar readability

[justinrh 260]

The progress bar current state is not very distinctive against the background.  Please consider a readability improvement.

Hi, do you mean the gray part?

[justinrh 260]

Maaaybe.  It is really both colors - change one or both or add a head marker, which ever you choose is best.

The green is hard to read?

[justinrh 260]

No.  That green against that grey is hard to read.

So would it help if the gray were a little lighter?

I wonder if you go into settings/display and change the accent color to something like red it might work better for you. I know it does for me. I do not really like the green as my old eyes often misreads the various accents if green is used. I just wish the color setting could be done on clients like the Roku or the Fire stick.

I think so, Luke.

 @justinrhI mentioned earlier that changing the "Accent color" in settings changes the color of the progress bar.
Have you tried that? By making that change there is no reason for Emby to change anything. 

What you want seems to already exist. I do not see that anything else needs to or should be needed.

You are right, @Gilgamesh_48I can change the accent, and any other color is better for this issue.  But I like green because it matches the Emby logo color  .  Seriously, thank you for the suggestion - never thought to look or that accent color would change the progress bar color.

It does seem like the gray background is a bit too dark generally.
