Way Back Home Genre
Beverly Denmark
Genres are broader then Collection but they apply to all libraries also, not a specific Movie or TV library. So Genres on homes screen will end up mixing all content types in one location so genre "Action" would show TV and Movies mixed as they would not be filtered by content type or library.
All about choice though, and it's just like a skin or theme at end of day. Emby makes customers happy if choices or options to toggle for choices Just makes me worried when people start saying copy plex. If they want plex let them go to plex or create a plex theme. Hate the plex look to be default and only. I read on some other parts of the forum one or two customers requesting looking like plex. It's a no from me
I've been Googling this and this thread piqued my interest.. When clicking Genres in either TV or Movies on the browser, I get both TVs and Movies mixed together. At first I thought I'd hate this, but I actually kinda like it.... It's not mirrored on the Android for TV version or the Roku version. Is this intentional?
Ahh makes sense. But I do think this functionality could work - especially if you could have things sorted in a random order as a means to rediscover content. Genres don't have to be confined to the typical 'Adventure'/'Thriller'/'Comedy' buckets. Netflix does this:
That's what the LG TV app looks like for me. For a couple of days it was the theater-style layout, then it switched back to what's shown in this thread. The LG app has no settings though, so I'm not sure how to change it?
I don't see the lack of sources as a reason to NOT implement this type of thing if adding to metadata could be done in groups. So for instance, I have a special place in my heart for "chambara" or samurai cinema. That is not an american genre but adding it would be simple if I could select all of my chambara films and add the genre once. But right now I have to go through each title individually, open the metadata etc etc... it takes too long.
I would like to have a system wide "Genre"-type of Library as discussed above, which would allow access to all genres in all libraries. And the resulting list could be grouped by the libraries, so e.g. opening the "Genre"-type of Library and clicking "genre "Action" would result in a group of films of library "Films", followed by a group series of library "Series"...
By the way and unrelated
The general visibility of the genre display is not good at all in my opinion.
In my opinion, there should not be an image or icon in the genres menu. but only the word.
Is there such a possibility? Add only the word to display selection
Nope, don't like GENRES messed up between libraries like movies and tv. If I am in TV I only want to see TV, don't care about netflix; their interface is a shambles which is why I don't subscribe to it, a confusing mess.
In my original post, it was about the TV library and Movies by placing one shortcut when in Horizontal view, next to current collections shortcut is, and replacing Upcoming shortcut in a TV library on the home screen when in horizontal view.
I think some people mean suggested content for each genre - but in my view this should go under SUGGESTIONS in a library as makes more sense as the home screen can't take multiple genres and suggestions for each. It's possible that next to collections, Genre shortcuts on home screen a SUGGESTIONS shortcut too but I can only see space for 3 shortcuts if current two are made smaller width (see screen shot in my post higher up on this page for visual check of the current shortcuts in horizontal view).
Bringing It All Back Home (known as Subterranean Homesick Blues in some European countries; sometimes also spelled Bringin' It All Back Home[5]) is the fifth studio album by the American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, released in March 1965 by Columbia Records.[6][nb 1] In a major transition from his earlier sound, it was Dylan's first album to incorporate electric instrumentation, which caused controversy and divided many in the contemporary folk scene.[7]
The album is split into two distinct halves; the first half of the album features electric instrumentation, in which on side one of the original LP, Dylan is backed by an electric rock and roll band. The second half features mainly acoustic songs. The album abandons the protest music of Dylan's previous records in favor of more surreal, complex lyrics.[8]
The album reached No. 6 on Billboard's Pop Albums chart, the first of Dylan's LPs to break into the US Top 10. It also topped the UK charts later that spring. The first track, "Subterranean Homesick Blues", became Dylan's first single to chart in the US, peaking at No. 39. Bringing It All Back Home has been described as one of the greatest albums of all time by multiple publications.[9][10][11][12] In 2003, it was ranked number 31 on Rolling Stone's list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time", later repositioned to number 181 in the 2020 edition.
Dylan spent much of the summer of 1964 in Woodstock, a small town in upstate New York where his manager, Albert Grossman, had a place.[9] When Joan Baez went to see Dylan that August, they stayed at Grossman's house. Baez recalls that "most of the month or so we were there, Bob stood at the typewriter in the corner of his room, drinking red wine and smoking and tapping away relentlessly for hours. And in the dead of night, he would wake up, grunt, grab a cigarette, and stumble over to the typewriter again." Dylan already had one song ready for his next album: "Mr. Tambourine Man" was written in February 1964 but omitted from Another Side of Bob Dylan. Another song, "Gates of Eden", was also written earlier that year, appearing in the original manuscripts to Another Side of Bob Dylan; a few lyrical changes were eventually made, but it's unclear if these were made that August in Woodstock. At least two songs were written that month: "If You Gotta Go, Go Now" and "It's Alright Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)". During this time, Dylan's lyrics became increasingly surreal, and his prose grew more stylistic, often resembling stream-of-consciousness writing with published letters dating from 1964 becoming increasingly intense and dreamlike as the year wore on.
Dylan returned to the city, and on August 28, he met the Beatles for the first time in their New York hotel.[13] In retrospect, this meeting with the Beatles would prove to be influential to the direction of Dylan's music, as he would soon record music invoking a rock sound for at least the next three albums. Dylan would remain on good terms with the Beatles, and as biographer Clinton Heylin writes, "the evening established a personal dimension to the very real rivalry that would endure for the remainder of a momentous decade."
Other songs and sketches recorded at this session: "Love Minus Zero/No Limit", "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue", "She Belongs to Me", "On the Road Again", "If You Gotta Go, Go Now", "You Don't Have to Do That", "California," and "Outlaw Blues", all of which were original compositions.
Dylan and Wilson held another session at Studio A the following day, this time with a full, electric band. Guitarists Al Gorgoni, Kenny Rankin, and Bruce Langhorne were recruited, as were pianist Paul Griffin, bassists Joseph Macho Jr. and William E. Lee, and drummer Bobby Gregg. The day's work focused on eight songs, all of which had been attempted the previous day. According to Langhorne, there was no rehearsal, "we just did first takes and I remember that, for what it was, it was amazingly intuitive and successful." Few takes were required of each song, and after three and a half hours of recording (lasting from 2:30 pm to 6:00 pm), master takes of "Love Minus Zero/No Limit", "Subterranean Homesick Blues", "Outlaw Blues", "She Belongs to Me", and "Bob Dylan's 115th Dream" were all recorded and selected for the final album.[16]
Sometime after dinner, Dylan reportedly continued recording with a different set of musicians, including John P. Hammond and John Sebastian (only Langhorne returned from earlier that day). They recorded six songs, but the results were deemed unsatisfactory and ultimately rejected.
Another session was held at Studio A the next day, and it would be the last one needed. Once again, Dylan kept at his disposal the musicians from the previous day (that is, those that participated in the 2:30 pm to 6:00 pm session); the one exception was pianist Paul Griffin, who was unable to attend and replaced by Frank Owens. Daniel Kramer recalls:[16] .mw-parser-output .templatequoteoverflow:hidden;margin:1em 0;padding:0 32px.mw-parser-output .templatequote .templatequoteciteline-height:1.5em;text-align:left;padding-left:1.6em;margin-top:0
The session began with "Maggie's Farm": only one take was recorded, and it was the only one they'd ever need. From there, Dylan successfully recorded master takes of "On the Road Again", "It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)", "Gates of Eden", "Mr. Tambourine Man", and "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue", all of which were set aside for the album. A master take of "If You Gotta Go, Go Now" was also selected, but it would not be included on the album; instead, it was issued as a single-only release in Europe, but not in the US or the UK.
