aussie43 0 Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 Hi, I am new to Emby and can't figure out the following - I prefer to have the main page showing albums or folders. But every time I start Emby, it starts with Suggestions. Can this be changed somehow somewhere?I can't find any setting for this. Thanks in advance
Luke 42085 Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 Hi, yes have you explored your home screen settings?
aussie43 0 Posted May 6, 2019 Author Posted May 6, 2019 Hi, guys - sorry, but I can't find it anywhere. There may be misunderstanding about what I want to achieve. I myself can get everything I want by getting to it and selecting it, but I want to make it as easy as possible for my wife. She will not use it if she has to go through many steps. I have three music libraries (later I will have more). The global Home screen is presenting them fine - I would like to paste a screen shot, but the Paste command does not work. When I select one of the three libraries, the following screen - the Home screen for that particular library - shows three groups of posters: Latest Music, Recently Played, Frequently Played. And at the top, the horizontal menu bar has "suggestions" highlighted. I have then to click on "Folders" to get what I want. I would like to set it up that it will go to Folders straight away. I don't care about "suggestions", frequently played etc.
Luke 42085 Posted May 7, 2019 Posted May 7, 2019 Have you tried clicking your user icon in the top right?
aussie43 0 Posted May 7, 2019 Author Posted May 7, 2019 Have you tried clicking your user icon in the top right? No, I haven't. I had no idea that there is a truckload of settings hidden behind a user icon. Usually settings are behind the tooth wheel icon. Anyway, I found the screen default settings there, and it now works exactly as I wanted. Thank you very much. Now if you could please help me again - I entered a new library - my holiday photos. It looks that I will be happy with it when I organise the folder images, except for one thing. The picture library is stuck in-between music libraries. Is it possible to have them shown separately - to have a group of music libraries, and below that a group of picture libraries? Like the Latest Music, Recently Played, Frequently Played etc. Similar arrangement
Luke 42085 Posted May 7, 2019 Posted May 7, 2019 Have you looked in those same settings where you can choose the order of both your libraries as well as your home screen sections?

No I haven't. I have uninstalled Emby (a very messy excercise) because I found out that it will not stream to my Shield TV for free. Thanks for your help anyway.
Luke 42085 Posted May 8, 2019 Posted May 8, 2019 We work very hard on Emby and we thank you for your support.
