Issues with Autogenerated Images

[RvsTW]

Somehow Jellyfin doesn't autogenerate images for me on my "Libraries" and no matter what repo I use the studios images are always incomplete even if they have an image on the repo itself. Any ideas on how to fix it?

What happens when you remove the custom css and or theme?

Nothing, I added the CSS trying to find a fix for the missing "art"

Hey @RvsTW

Does your Libs contain media that has poster images? JF generates lib posters based on that. If there are non, it will not generate any.

Almost every folder I have has poster if not all of them, series nor movies are affected by these, only the images generated in the main menu, I added some myself before but I wanted to see if there's a solution for this, if not I'll continue to add them myself

How long have you waited after creating the libraries, running the initial scan, refreshing the metadata to grab images, etc...? I know for me, the cover art for libraries never popped up immediately. It seems to be tied to a scheduled task that runs on a schedule. Have you left it to sit for 24 hours after making changes to see if it will automatically cycle through cover art? I made zero changes at all and with the default configuration, my libraries eventually had cover art from my poster images. It cycles out every now and then (I have never timed the gap between when it changes, however).

You may be able to force cover art through refreshing metadata and searching for missing images, though if your libraries are like mine, I prefer not to do so...

It shouldn't take THAT long, right? I don't use local images and it takes a few minutes before images start populating and the library is given an image.

Can you share your server logs with us?

A few days after the last reinstall, and still no luck

Log file is too big for the site, it's around 30 MB. Any way to make the file smaller or what parts of the log can I delete so it's not as big?

You can just zip the file. Text compresses very well.
