[Feature]: Option to use posters instead of backdrops in Continue Watching Section #78

Closed simoncaron closed 4 months ago

Currently, the "Continue Watching" section of the home screen is using backdrops for each item. This can lead to weird results:

It would be nice if the option to select posters instead of backdrops for this section was offered to the user.

Ah yes, we should change that. The only problem is that episodes normally don't have posters. So it would only improve it for movies. But maybe there is also a solution for episodes.

For shows it could be the main series artwork, for movies the main poster maybe?

jdk-21 commented 5 months ago

I like the solution of the web ui with optional covers. I think the default should then be movie and series posters. And in the settings you can still enable backdrop for episodes.
