    Screensvaer needs to show movie title

    When the screensaver kicks in it scrolls through my various movie images. No title is shown so I don't aways know what the movie is.

    I have installed whichever version it is that's needed to run on my Samsung TV running Tizen. I followed the instructions to connect via network. Very easy to do. The server is on a TrueNas system. Jellyfin works a treat.

    After a short while, if there is no action, a screensaver kicks in (I guess it's a screensaver). This scrolls through images from the many movies I have. The image changes about every 3 seconds. It'd be nice if that was 5 or even a settable value somewhere. Besides the point; not what I'm after here.

    While I recognise many of the movies from their image I don't every time. It would be nice to see the movie (or TV show I suppose) title overlayed on the screen. I have searched for details on this but have not been able to find anything. Apart from one post that mentions there is a title displayed (on the Android version from memory). If there is a title can I just add some custom CSS to make it show up? I do not know the container or class names involved if this is possible.

    If there is no title on the screensaver can this be added somewhere or somehow? Maybe that's a feature request. Let me know which subcategory on features to put that if that's the case.

    If anyone has a solution to this I would greatly appreciate details. I've only been running Jellyfin about two weeks and I already love it. Apart from this one thing (and no ability to add to a watchlist (not favourites or playlist)).
