Other Videos library type will not show Extras & Posters need to be portrait, not landscape

Server Version#:any version after Feb 2021
Player Version#: any Plex Web version after Feb. 2021

Extras do not display in any items in the library type of Other Videos in Plex Web (they did display near the end of last year). This is apparent on Windows PC server, Windows Plex Web and Windows Plex Player. Oddly, the Windows Plex Media Player works fine as do players for iOS devices. There is no problem with Extras for libraries of the Movies type, just the Other Videos type.

I chose to have an Other Videos library for personal stuff. A good example as to why Extras would be nice to work is that I have a full concert of a local band with extras that are shorter promo videos and single song videos. Placing these types in a Movies type library doesn’t make a lot of sense.

Developers should get with the iOS developers and find out what they did to make it work correctly. Also the iOS uses PORTRAIT thumbnails instead of LANDSCAPE for posters just like every other library type. That is how it should be. Plex should be consistent across players and the iOS guys got it right. Please fix the PMS and Web players. Thank you.
