Enhancement: Images to the bottom of Now Showing for resolution, sound format, and aspect ratio about plex-movie-poster-display

[ZeroCoolGOS]

Working on it.

I just need to find the assets.

Do you have a link to the assets that we can use?

[ZeroCoolGOS]

And... who's system is that? :)

I would like to check out others systems to get ideas.

Superb work @ZeroCoolGOS I don't know if it needs the "Presented In" text, displays so small both on my laptop and TV, font size doesn't seem to effect the text. The logos should be sufficient and probably could be larger so that the text is legible... WOW dude! My sample images:

Yes. The font size does not control that text (yet).

I was not sure if we wanted the "Presented In". I was just following the example provided earlier.

I may add an option to change or disable the text.

The images are a bit small on display as they are scaled at 20% so I can increase them easily.

I still have some more metadata to get but some info has been a bit difficult to read.

If there is any other data you want let me know.

I am still working on radio and the audio info. Also I have a few glitches to address.

I am also thinking of changing the color combo of the ratings as the black boarder on a black background kinda makes it look even smaller then it is.

Thoughts on the use of these MPAA logos that are available for download for use as long as it's not for commercial use: https://www.brandsoftheworld.com/logo/motion-picture-association-of-america-r-rating

That is an idea. I had thought of it. But did not have this link.

I custom made these ones so that it would have a more consistent look, feel and size. Including support for TV show ratings.

[titelies]

Completely understand and appreciate all you've done. Was hoping to cut some work for you but I get it... Consistency and similar size should make it easier for other adjustments.

[ZeroCoolGOS]

I have also included a template file so I can pump out updated and new icons fast 😄

[titelies]

@ZeroCoolGOS I am able to adjust "PRESENTED IN" Font Size with new 11.5 update, nice work on the audio icons!!! This time the icons appear to be too large and I saw from your update info that you are still looking into the spacing issue. Hope this is helpful info to you: https://i.imgur.com/fZVGpuI.jpg

@titelies
Cool.

I will adjust smaller. I will even look at the idea of giving control of the size to the users in the future.

If you want you can adjust it yourself in the DisplaySettings.css file.

As for the spacing I had a few more options that had been coded but not working yet so have been disabled and the way the images where spaced was not even so I have them up against each other. I am not sure if a single space is sufficient. I will be doing a bit of playing around.

How is the size to orientation?

The icons should be smaller in landscape.

[titelies]

@ZeroCoolGOS I couldn't find a DisplaySettings.css file, did you possibly mean the DisplayStyle.css file, to change the width percentage:
@media screen and (orientation: portrait) {
.showMetadata img {
width: 40%;

I checked it on my laptop in landscape and the icons look like this: https://i.imgur.com/UShQPve.png

[ZeroCoolGOS]

Yes. I forgot what I had named it. Lol

[titelies]

@ZeroCoolGOS Tried changing the width percentages for both the landscape and portrait for the .showMetadata img but it had no effect on my TV display in portrait or my laptop in landscape.

FYI: It seems like PMPD displays the icons for the default audio and video metadata. It doesn't actually display the correct audio of what is currently selected and playing on the client, I have the movie playing with 5.1 audio but it's showing 2.0 Stereo. Since, I have multiple audio files for everyone of my movies, it seems to choose the first audio file from the list and displays that icon. Same result applies to Video, if 720p is currently selected and playing on the client, PMPD displays the 1080p icon.

Ah. After adjusting the css you may need to do a force refresh of the browser for it to update.

As for the "now playing". Yes, I know there is a bug there. I would like to fix it in the next few days if possible. It's just trying to get the right data from the API.

How do you have separate audio files from your video files?

[titelies]

As usual @ZeroCoolGOS ... you are correct the Force Refresh worked, I was able to set Landscape to 12% and Vertical to 30% which looks better for my TV setup. Thank you.

I process my Blu-Ray discs with MakeMKV and then HandBrake the file to have a Stereo, 5.1, and 7.1 audio file for most of my collection. Stereo files work great for most of my clients, and then I use the 5.1 file in my living room setup and the 7.1 file for my home theater that has 9.1 surround sound.

@titelies

That is pretty cool. This year I will need to up my Plex server game and be able to hold that amount of data. 😄

Would you be able to send me a copy of the XML for one of those media titles so I can review the information and see what changes I would need to make?

[titelies]

Just a thought @ZeroCoolGOS ... spacing can be forced by editing the current icons to be layered over a larger black rectangle that is a few pixels larger on all 4 sides. I will get you an XML for a media file.
