CharleyVarrick 283 Posted December 21, 2016 Posted December 21, 2016 I noticed since server 3.1 a display anomaly, most networks have their names displayed under tiles, but some have it appear within tiles (AXS and Canal+ in this capture) IMO, it would look better if they all display similarly (under)
ebr 16184 Posted December 21, 2016 Posted December 21, 2016 The one with the name on top of it doesn't have a thumb image.
CharleyVarrick 283 Posted December 21, 2016 Author Posted December 21, 2016 ?? in the screen capture, only cbc is a placeholder, and its name appears under
CharleyVarrick 283 Posted December 21, 2016 Author Posted December 21, 2016 OK, I know what you mean, primary vs thumb
ebr 16184 Posted December 21, 2016 Posted December 21, 2016 Correct. But you are also right that, now that we have the cards, there really is no need for the overlay even when there isn't a thumb.
CharleyVarrick 283 Posted December 21, 2016 Author Posted December 21, 2016 In this case, it would be handy if from Edit Images, I could "share" my primary image over to thumbs 1
MrWebsmith 598 Posted December 21, 2016 Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) In this case, it would be handy if from Edit Images, I could "share" my primary image over to thumbs yes.. you "can" manually by opening the image and saving it and then uploading it as the other "type"... but theres a FR someplace..i can find it right now.. to streamline that and say.. save this "background" as a "thumb" etc.. it was a great feature of say metaBrowser or other metadata tools that emby should add someday Edited December 21, 2016 by MrWebsmith

Also I have no success at all in "opening the image" Edit images gives me this, but then I can't do anything else with it Edited December 21, 2016 by jlr19
MrWebsmith 598 Posted December 21, 2016 Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) ok... this may be confusing to follow.. in your screenshot.. hit the magnifying glass... to bring up the "choices" for that image... then when youre on the next popup... click on the IMAGE ITSELF to "open it" in a tab... then right click to save the image... go back to the edit images page... and now hit the + to upload your saved image and change the image-type to "thumb" ... when you had used a "backdrop".. etc oh and FR is Feature Request.. so it can be added into the product at some point... i was fairly sure this has been "submitted" already long ago Edited December 21, 2016 by MrWebsmith
CharleyVarrick 283 Posted December 21, 2016 Author Posted December 21, 2016 There are 2 magnifying glass, but they both seem to to the same thing: bring me to search for other images, not choices about the previous one. At this point my image is not showing
Luke 42078 Posted December 21, 2016 Posted December 21, 2016 That's just because there are no other sources available for studio images.
MrWebsmith 598 Posted December 21, 2016 Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) ok from there.. its a background right?? so drop that box to background and you should see the 1 image you already have (at least.. maybe there are multiple)... then continue the rest of the steps i laid out on mine the default sourced image was already a "thumb"... so i could follow these steps to reuse this image as a "backdrop" .. just have to flip the types in what i posted above... Edited December 21, 2016 by MrWebsmith
MrWebsmith 598 Posted December 21, 2016 Posted December 21, 2016 lemme look at that network/studio on my setup and see what it finds

I thought it was a "primary", but I tried all choices in Image drop down box, none of which gives back the image Edit: my pic is primary if I look back at post# 9 Edited December 21, 2016 by jlr19
MrWebsmith 598 Posted December 21, 2016 Posted December 21, 2016 interesting... here's mine and you can just "upload" it as whatever type(s) you want.. https://www.dropbox.com/s/drnqiasl02ynfj5/canalplus.jpg?dl=0
CharleyVarrick 283 Posted December 21, 2016 Author Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) Maybe the difference is mine was downloaded "manually" thru the "+" sign Very likely so, I just did as you said with another studio logo (that Emby found on its own) and yes, when I set the box to thumb, it brings back the image. Doesn't work for some reason with user-added picture Edited December 21, 2016 by jlr19
CharleyVarrick 283 Posted December 21, 2016 Author Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) It's a little ironic that I can fix the studios that don't require any fixing (as emby found their logo on its own), but for all those that had the plain colored tiles, it looks like I'll have to redo all of those, but this time, make sure I set pic to thumb type. Edited December 22, 2016 by jlr19
Luke 42078 Posted December 21, 2016 Posted December 21, 2016 What do you mean can't fix it? you could just upload your own image.
CharleyVarrick 283 Posted December 21, 2016 Author Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) That's what I called having to redo those all over again. When I first uploaded missing studio logo pictures, I saved them as Primary (instead of Thumbs), look back at my first post's screen capture to see how those look beside the one Emby found on its own. I'm wondering why user added pictures can't be worked upon the same as Emby found one's like MrWebsmith explained Edited December 21, 2016 by jlr19
CharleyVarrick 283 Posted December 21, 2016 Author Posted December 21, 2016 My only mistake, if I can call it that, is that back when I was fixing all those studios that were showing a colored tile instead of a logo, I left image type to the default Primary, instead of forcing them as thumbs.
Happy2Play 9780 Posted December 21, 2016 Posted December 21, 2016 Just like in post #11 if you change the image type to thumb you get your original image. @@Luke can studio/network search be defaulted or limited to only thumbs, like you did with the search option for backdrops?
