Movies/Shows titles not displaying on Google TV app in the media sections - Franklins - 2024-09-02

A bit new to this so trying to figure out the basic details.

On my Google TV I have the native Jellyfin app from the Play store.  It's able to stream and all that with no problem and displays all of the groupings I have made and all of the content.  The issue is that when I am browsing the media all I see are the images but no titles under them.

On my PC, Android phone, and Chromebook using both the web browser and the apps for each device the names of the titles are displayed as expected under each movie poster in the media sections.  

On the Google TV app all I have is a huge wall of images and no names under them.  I have tried the various grid layout options from the top right corner but each one just displays all of the images with no names under them.  I have tried both horizontal and vertical scrolling and different image sizes, its always the same.  Just a wall of movie images and no names.

On the main home screen I see the names under all of the titles and on the movie section itself the name shows up at the top of the screen when the image is selected but not under each one when browsing.  

I am using no custom themes at the moment, pretty much a default installation.  This is a Sony Bravia TV.

You aren't missing anything. AFAIK, there is no way to put the movie/show title underneath the post.

Ah, okay. Is that just a limitation in the Google TV app? When browsing on the phone app or using a browser the names are all displayed. The only place I have not seen the name is on the TV.

Design choice for the Android TV app?
