Mike-G 16 Posted August 14, 2020 Posted August 14, 2020 I have several collections where Emby finds a full-frame image for the collection's primary image (I didn't specify that image manually). For most of my collections, Emby uses an image which looks like it's a 4-quadrant image generated from the primary images of the items in the collection (again, this is without me specifying an image manually). But sometimes when Emby finds a full-frame image for the collection, I would prefer to use the 4-quadrant generated image. I can't figure out how to do that. If I delete the full-frame collection image that Emby found, the image goes to a solid color background, not the 4-quadrant image. Is there someway I can force Emby to ignore the full-frame image for the collection it found and have it generate the 4-quadrant image instead?
Happy2Play 9785 Posted August 14, 2020 Posted August 14, 2020 Can you show examples. Collection image treatment is via the actual collection downloading a image from TMDB or The coverart plugin treating Collections/Boxsets via chosen treatment.
Mike-G 16 Posted August 14, 2020 Author Posted August 14, 2020 (edited) Well, I don't have the Coverart plugin installed, so maybe I need to do that? Here's an example: I only have 2 movies in my Sinbad collection, so I don't want the cover art to reflect a complete collection. So I deleted the collection art Emby found and it now shows a solid background. The Tron Collection's art is something Emby Found. The Transporter and Space Odyssey collections are the 4-quadrant "generated" ones I was referring to. Edited August 14, 2020 by Mike-G
Solution Happy2Play 9785 Posted August 15, 2020 Solution Posted August 15, 2020 I just did test of a Collection with no images and all I had to do is a full library scan. But this is a manual process of deleting all the original Collection images so the primary image of the collection items can be used. 1
Mike-G 16 Posted August 15, 2020 Author Posted August 15, 2020 (edited) Doing the delete and rescan gets me just what I wanted. Thanks, @Happy2Play!! Really appreciate the help. I feel stupid -- I should have thought of that myself. Edited August 15, 2020 by Mike-G 1
