Season specific Backgrounds loading wrong

hmmm very weird. I just added both shows to a library and selected the same background art for the show and it’s also showing for the season background too. The season edit page is also blank. Do you have a season background image stored alongside your files? Can you check out the XML for these impacted seasons to see if their backgrounds are locked already?

Regardless, thanks for double checking on this and reporting back.

Also, checked on Roku and the season background (the same as the show background) is shown. I even uploaded an image for season 2 of YuruYuri and only that season has the unique uploaded background.

I haven’t for these titles.

When I removed one still bugged Show and readded it, it worked as expected - no bug anymore. I don’t think it’s related with pulling from Plex but something in the local DB holding onto something for these two titles, on my setup, even after the fix is applied. I dunno that someone else with the same shows (added before the fix is applied) would have the same issue - that’d be a way to “confirm” so maybe if MrFancyPants1999 remembers which of their shows were also stuck after the fix that might help but might be more effort than it’s worth.

What’s causing these titles to be “sticky” about it I dunno… I tried a lot of things and looked at a lot of details (xml, file names, special characters, date added, etc) and nothing really hinted why these two didn’t clean up.

I fixed one show but left one still unfixed for now (the “wrong” background on that one doesn’t bother me) in case there’s any follow up checking I can do if it’ll help. Just let me know. I figured I’d wait and see if the version that goes public (likely not this version) does anything different.

It’d be nice if a manual metadata refresh wasn’t necessary - will the scheduled tasks catch it? That’d probably be good otherwise people won’t know they’ll need to manually refresh after the update goes public with the fix. Once a beta with the fix goes public, I’ll mark it as “solved”.

It’s outside this bug, but I think it’d be nice to have that “unselect” function for season backgrounds. That way if you do pick a unique background for season (even accidentally), you can still go back to it loading the show background you pick.

Edit: Forgot to say thanks for double checking and testing it out. :slight_smile:
