Single Season, season01-poster.jpg or folder.jpg?

[Z0m8ie 26]

When a TV show is a single season what would be the most compatible naming convention?, through experiment I have tried "season-all-poster.jpg" which doesn't work. "season01-poster" works but does not get displayed on the EHS unless I have a duplicate jpg in the actual season folder.

if the folder is called season 1 or season 01 then season01-poster should work

 

@@sfnetwork can you confirm?

Hi Luke, all my single season TV series folders are named "season 1" and "season01-poster" works fine. I have noticed however that when I've been changing the names of seaon folders that I get a font overlay of the show on the banner?, is this a bug or something I need to turn off somewhere?

i have no idea what you mean

Best I do a screenshot brb

[Z0m8ie 26]

In the screenshot, this is the first page of my TV Archive. I changed the "band of brothers" poster name from "season-all-poster.jpg" back to "season 01-poster.jpg", now I have a font overlay on the band of brothers banner for some strange reason?

i don't know what the theme is doing. these tests are better in the web client

Ok well its quite easy to recreate this bug, take any tv show with one season, stick a folder.jpg within the season folder and one outside in the root folder. Now delete the one outside of the season folder, refresh metatdata from web client and you will find the tv show is now displaying the title over the banner....

Yeah?, all my folders and files are named with these conventions. My issue is that on some banner in the TV series, I have an overlay of the TV series name, as in the example given in post #6 - Band Of Brothers. How do I turn this off?

I'm not quite sure. @@ebr may know. does it happen in other Emby apps?

In the web client, I have noticed all the banners it happens on have one thing in common and that is they do not have a 'primary image'. Not sure where to go from there, I have no other emby apps.

what's the file name of the poster you have?

within season 00:

Hi, I managed to resolve the problem by including a folder.jpg within the root of each series... Thanks for replying anyway.
