In Plex' "Recently added" line, the elements doesn't make clear what they actually are. Here a visual example:
Additional context
It's specially confusing when the text-less poster doesn't have much information about the tv show. For example the element in my image that has "Volume 3" title, is the third season of "Love, Death & Robots". I'm sure nobody would have guessed it :)
Describe the solution you'd like
I think would be enough to include a new attribute into SeasonPosterOverlayPart, like IncludeSeriesName (true/false, false by default) that in case of having True value, then the overlay will outcome the series name above the season title, like:
Love, Death & Robots
Volume 3 (center aligned)
I'm not sure about the size of the both texts. I mean, if would be better that the season title would be smaller than tv show name. Maybe tv show name is more relevant (also the original season posters put the title of series pretty much bigger than season), so yes, tv show bigger than season could be better.
Describe alternatives you've considered
When the taken poster image contains the tv show name, then is not needed, like this example:
But I guess it's hard to control when the poster has a text embeeded or not (TMDB is tricky sometimes) and also then it'd have language issues. So, I think it's not a valid alternative.
