Android TV: Continue Watching stretches portrait posters into wide images


Recommended Posts

The Continue Watching row on my Google TV has an image rendering issue. Portrait posters initially appear with empty black bars on both sides, as if the app is trying to display a horizontal landscape image within the available space. If I scroll down and then back up, the posters become stretched horizontally into wide rectangles. In the Emby web client, the same posters display correctly. This previously worked correctly on my Google TV but started exhibiting this behavior at some point in the past few days. Verified that Home → Continue Watching → Image type is set to Primary. 

  • Emby Server version: 4.10.1.0

  • Emby for Android TV version:  3.5.70g

Has anyone else encountered this issue, or found a way to restore the correct poster aspect ratio?

You have your image type in that home section set to "Primary"?

Correct.

Also, just tested the "Emby for Android" app on my TV and it works fine there. Just the "Emby for Android TV" app shows this issue.
