majestic 4 Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) I added a new media folder to my Emby server called TV. When I look at the Home screen in the Web Client I am missing the dynamically generated images and I only see the generic image (see attached). I have tried deleting and recreating the media folder with no luck. Can someone help me figure out how to get this image generated so it can be viewed on my clients? Thank you.

CBers 7450 Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Is your TV grouped as a view? I've seen if you only have one TV folder and group it, then the Dynamic Image doesn't appear, but if you un-view it, the DI appears.
majestic 4 Posted May 19, 2015 Author Posted May 19, 2015 Does the folder have any content in it yet? Yes. I have 11 shows with many episodes. Is your TV grouped as a view? I've seen if you only have one TV folder and group it, then the Dynamic Image doesn't appear, but if you un-view it, the DI appears. I am not really sure what you mean by grouped as a view. I really didn't make any changes to the default settings as I am just getting started with Emby,
CBers 7450 Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 In your User Preferences, do you have TV folders grouped together as one TV view ??
majestic 4 Posted May 21, 2015 Author Posted May 21, 2015 (edited) In your User Preferences, do you have TV folders grouped together as one TV view ?? Yes. I tried this option checked and un-checked with no change to the Dynamic Image. Edited May 21, 2015 by majestic
CBers 7450 Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 (edited) Yes, getting Dynamic Images is a bit of a Black-Art! It needs to be made more resilient. You did do a library scan or server restart after the change? . Edited May 21, 2015 by CBers
majestic 4 Posted May 21, 2015 Author Posted May 21, 2015 I tried the full library scan, but I'm running the Emby docker so I haven't tried to restart the server yet. Will give it a try after hours and report back. Is there a log that would be good to review at for this particular issue?
majestic 4 Posted May 21, 2015 Author Posted May 21, 2015 Thanks. I restarted the docker container and am still missing the image Here's a log. server-63567793375.txt
koi 3 Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 Was there any resolution to this issue? I also transitioned to the Docker and am not getting dynamic images on some groups. Specifically, the Collections folder created by Auto Boxsets. On one of the other groups which didn't have a DI, it mysteriously appeared after a few days (no server restart).
