Just updated to the new GUI in the app on AndroidTV (Nvidia Shield) - I am a bit frustrated about it I’ll admit - and my folders with photos are not showing anymore. Is this a bug? They show on my other apps (PC, Mobile etc.). Also; it would be cool if the AndroidTV app could tag content with Dolby Vision, just as the PC app does. ---

Bringing that functionality back into the main Plex app will allow us to support some of the basic features like search that are missing today and ship updates more quickly. After that happens the Plex Photos app will be retired.

If storing photos on Synology NAS, you can use that app as a workaround for now. [https://www.synology.com/en-global/dsm/feature/photos](https://www.synology.com/en-global/dsm/feature/photos)
