@soderlund91the plugin image should probably be updated.

It is updated, not sure what it still sticks.. Might be browser or server cache? 
For me its updated, but i have uninstalled, reinstalled and so on a few times while testing.

WARNING! 
I just made a run with the "sync home screen" and all of my homescreen sections for the source user got deleted. I'm gonna look into this as soon as possible (will be tomorrow). 

Make sure to backup both the plugin AND Emby (user settings). 

It could be because i selected the source user in the "copy to". Not sure. 

EDIT:
Yeah, that's it. DO NOT COPY TO THE SOURCE USER !! I'm gonna add a function that prevents this

@soderlund91The top row, where you select between Tag & Collection, Home Screen, and Settings, is white text on a white background for the unselected options. I just happened to hover over one and it turned grey.

Made a quick fix and put out v3.0.0.1. 

Updated the previous post with new .dll and also on github

When I download 3.0.0.1 from GH link: https://github.com/soderlund91/HomeScreenCompanion/releases/tag/v3.0.0.1

It loads in Emby as 3.0.0.0 still

Even the .dll version info on the file says 3.0.0.0

Did it not get updated correctly?

Probably my mistake.. It was like almost 2am I was pretty tired and stressed trying to get that fix out 😅 

Best way to test is by navigating to the Home Screen settings in the plugin and check if the selected user in source user is grayed out in the “sync to” section. If so, you have the latest update. 

Not sure why this happened.. I rebuilt the .dll with no changes to the code and now it works. 
 

Thanks for reporting! 

Edit: Updated the dll on github and attached here aswell. No real need to update if it work as above. I'm gonna put out another bugfix later today/tonight with the reported bug for light theme where the menu doesnt show.  

 

HomeScreenCompanion.dll

Thank you so much for this great update. What a long way we've come since the first release!

We are now very close to finally having real smart playlists in Emby. If I may say so, it seems to me that there are just a few parameters missing to be able to create truly comprehensive smart playlists: date added (& date modified), file size, and played (last played).

Thanks again for this superb plugin!
