Horizontal vs Vertical TV Season Scrolling


Recommended Posts

Posted

I'm using the Android Emby app on my FireTV (not Android TV).  I either hit a setting, or the app updated, because when scrolling through episodes in a TV Series it is now horizontal instead of vertical.  That is actually is awesome for swiping on my phone, not so much on a TV.  If it is a setting can someone point out to me where it is?

I'd assume the setting you're looking for would be "Preferred TV show display" under App Settings>your user Preferemces>Display tab; change it to "Always show season folders".

Close.  With a web browser on a computer:
Click Shows, Pick a Show, click on a Season.  The episodes scroll vertically (up and down).

Now do that with your Phone (Android):
The episodes scroll horizontally (left and right).

The Android app on my Fire TV used to work like a web browser on a computer, now it works like my phone.

I'd prefer to scroll up and down.  It showed more of the description of the episode and was a better experience on a TV.  If this is an update and the way the latest version is, I guess this is why folks are reluctant to move to the unified app - the use case between a tiny screen vs. the 10ft TV experience are very different.  I like the left/right swiping on my phone, just not the TV.
