Hey guys, I’m not sure if there is a topic open that I can vote on, but I would really like to see the video backdrop feature when browsing a certain movie or series,

If there is an open topic, please point me in the right direction

Have a great day

The forum has a pretty good search engine:

Looks like the fourth result is what you want.

> I’d love to have video backdrops displayed besides/under the plot summary á la Netflix. I don’t need a metadata agent for them, just give those of us who have these a way to use them. I’ve been tempted to move to emby for this functionality alone. but they play the backdrop behind everything and not just in a corner behind the plot summary. Being able to prevent this on remote clients would be a fair option. And support for TV clients would be the priority since smaller screens can’t really us…
