Seasonal Atmosphere: Festive Animations for Emby Android App ?

[Tiramisucayman 4]

Hello ,

I have an idea/search a potential feature, inspired by the Kodi Skin "Embuary." It would be amazing if a similar functionality could be added to the Emby Android App – especially for the version available on Android TV or through the app store.

For Christmas: Small Santas, snowmen, snowflakes, and presents could float across the screen (only on the home screen and in the libraries).
For Halloween: Small ghosts, pumpkins, and witches could appear and float across the screen.
For Easter: Easter bunnies, eggs, and grass could be added as animations.
Additionally, there could be a separate box on the main screen featuring seasonal suggestions from the library, such as movies or TV series matching the current holiday (e.g., Christmas, Halloween, or Easter).

I believe this would add a fantastic festive atmosphere and greatly enhance the user experience. Are there any plans to implement something like this?

Or is something like this already integrated?

 

Best regards,

hi, it's a nice idea. It just gets hard to spend time on it as opposed to other things.

But the Kodi Team had build any; i hope the official emby team can build a clone

For AndroidTV - yes, the client already has seasonal effects and an extra row showing relevant things to watch.
