Why does my GUI look different than the website pics

[markp2112 0]

I'm new to Emby and managed to install the app and get it going.  It all works perfectly but mine looks different to the pics on the website. Wondering if it's just because of the model of my TV or am I missing something?  I have subscribed to Premier.  Photos of my screen vs website attached. 

TV - Samsung UA55TU8000W (2020)
Server - Linux Mint on NUC

Could you link which website would that be, as those appear more like some Kodi skin? 

As far as I can see, all screenshots at Emby for Samsung Smart TV show relatively recent/modern GUI (in Horizontal mode).

I'm not sure where I got them from but even the link that you left is different than what I'm seeing.  The images in your link look more modern than mine.

These images are almost ten years old!

Try switching to Horizontal TV mode instead of Vertical in your Home Screen settings, it'd give you similar (mostly same) layout.

Thanks for the link. Yeah, blog entry from 2015 isn't really something to be referenced.

Those images are for the very old models before Tizen.  They are actually from the community app.

This is for the current app, while these are quite old now, they are still correct https://emby.media/emby-for-samsung-tizen-smart-tv-126-released.html
