No Library Name Overlay Text and No Backdrop in Home - EternalRin - 2024-07-07

An Issue that is occuring after i reinstalled arch linux on my laptop. The autogenerated text should be working as I havent manually selected any image as I know it disables the text  from previous experience and backdrop is enabled in the setting still nothing appears on home screen but they appear as intended inside the libraries.
Tried uninstalling and reinstalling jellyfin-server and jellyfin-web several times and still the problems persists. Even tried downgrading to 10.8.x versions using the downgrade package and still no good.

I'm new to this stuff and a noob at it if you need logs or anything please tell me and guide me throught it. 

If I made a mistake in posting or need more clarifying kindly tell.

Thank You.

OS : Arch Linux running Hyprland (bare metal no vm)
Type of Installation : Arch Linux Extra Repo Package
Version : 10.9.7
Other Clients : Jellyfin Web (Arch Extra Repo) and Jellyfin Media Player (AUR)
Specs :
Laptop with Intel i3-112g54 and Intel UHD Graphics

Does it have something to do with your theme?

FYI, if you want custom/static images you can use this tool to generate the text overlay.

Its the same with default skin. For the library images i think this could be a solution as I have used that tool before when trying to set a custom image.
Could you help me with the backdrop ? Without them the home screen kinda looks bland ngl  Weary-face

Settings > Home > Check backdrops about halfway down.

Enabled it on both jellyfin web aswell as jellyfin media player. Is the screensaver option related to the backdrops or is it seperate ?

It is separate. Leaving JF open for....5 mins? Will trigger screensaver. I only use it on my Android TV.
