Primary artist image fallback for album artwork


Recommended Posts

Posted

I would like to suggest that if emby can't find artwork for a music album, that it should look for the primary image of the album artist (if available) rather than the album artist backdrops.

The album artist primary image is almost always in 1:1 making it a much cleaner choice than the usually landscape backdrop.

Here is an example where emby picks the backdrop although the primary image would be a better choice:

I searched the forum and could not find a similar request, but I could have missed it.
