    @niels,

    Would it be possible to incorporate @M0RPH3US Media Bar into the Android TV app? 

    He has put a lot of effort into making this an incredible addition to the Jellyfin Home page (starting with some previous work from others that he gave a huge shout-out to), for web clients, JMP, Android mobile app, and even a report that it looks great in the WebOS client as well.

    I can attest that it is solid, though it is a WIP that he is continuing to refine to get object placement just right across screen resolutions. At the moment, with all of the recent changes, it looks fantastic and really spices up the home page in a way that makes the entire Jellyfin experience feel just right.

    The forum notes on the project are here, with a lot of movement in the past few days of @M0RPH3US making some needed adjustments so that it displays well in all of the standard clients noted above:  Jellyfin Media Bar

    And the GitHub page is here:  MakD/Jellyfin-Media-Bar: A Jellyfin Featured Content Bar to show off your media collection

    Some screenshots showing off the media bar in various environments:

    @M0RPH3US, yes, I tweaked my button container to bring them closer together, now that you made this possible with the adjustments from yesterday. I am using 13em, which seems to look great in all clients, as opposed to the 16em the css is defaulting to, which felt a little too far apart IMO.
