Continue Watching TV thumbnails broken again in PlexWeb

This bug still hasn’t been fixed. No other platform besides the web-app does this. You’re two biggest platforms (iOS/iPadOS/tvOS and Android/AndroidTV) look much better because they use the series fan art.

Anyone with a show older than 5 years knows that episode art is generally awful and has no real informative value as to what show or episode it is. It would be better from a navigation standpoint that the huge Continue Watching artwork was actually informative.

Why the web-app developer has decided to diverge from the rest of Plex apps is bewildering because it’s made the experience of using the web-app worse, not better.

Edit - If you turn off “Automatic Home Screen Management” (which you should anyways because it fixes a host of other issues, some of which are mentioned here: Manage Home Screen Automatic & Manual) you will get the old, correct behaviour. This is unique to PlexWeb for this specivic issue (old, correct behaviour exits on other platforms with Auto Homescreen Management on or off) but its worth turning off on other platforms for fixes to other issues.

It’s extremely troubling that you’ve introduced all these player-side visual customization features which, because they are broken, end up causing incredible amounts of hassles for admins.
