User Background Not Showing In Diamond Theme

[JohnnyM 40]

I'm using the Diamond Theme in MB3 Classic. I have tried to put my own background on the Theme like I had in MB2. but the background doesn't show up.

 

I created the following directory  C:\ProgramData\MediaBrowser-Classic\StartUpFolder\ where I put my theme background "Backdrop.jpg"

I even put a copy of the startup folder under C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\MediaBrowser-Classic\

and :\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\MediaBrowser-Server\

I set the Theme options  to Show Initial Folder Background ON

Show Theme Background OFF

Still no background

Needs to go in C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\MediaBrowser-server\root\default

All of this is handled via the server now.  Place your backdrop file in the root/default directory under the server installation directory (which is listed on the front page of the dashboard).

After restarting the Server it appeared.

 

Thank you both

I am having the same issue. I put the backdrop in C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\MediaBrowser-server\root\default and set Show Initial Folder Background ON

Show Theme Background OFF

Rebooted

No backdrop

It might be time for a new theme, as Diamond is no longer supported.

 

Perhaps try Chocolate as this is now the default theme and has been worked on a lot lately by ebr.

What's the file path for Chocolate?

If MBC is already installed, install Chocolate theme from MBC configurator.

Just upgraded to Emby and this no longer appears to be working again, restarted server but made no difference. Can this be fixed please?

Same over here: backdrop.jpg in folder C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\MediaBrowser-server\root\default is not picked up, as soon as you do a level lower in the subfolders it's picked up.  This worked before.

 

Thanks for your support!

That location is simply not tied to anything anymore with the user-based views.  If you want backdrops on your top level, then you can assign them to the top level items themselves.
