Change library image

[nothingveryobvious]

Hello, is there a way to change a library's cover image -- as in, find another random backdrop and overlay the library's title?

The only way I've found is replacing all images of the entire library.

Thanks!

As far as I'm aware, the one option is to upload static images. You might be able to locate the image used, delete it, and rescan the library while replacing images to force Jellyfin to pick a different image, but only if you've saved images next to media in folders.

To get Jellyfin to generate a random backdrop for the library, go to Dashboard → Libraries → Libraries select your library. Open the context menu and choose Scan Library. Then select "Scan for Missing Metadata" and Refresh, which will prompt Jellyfin to create a new library image. You don’t need to replace all the images.

Thank you!! I still wish there was a button for just that.
