Hi guys! I have a frequent issue on Jellyfin, that is, whenever there's a new TV show or movie, it quickly gets buried behind by new episodes of existing TV shows, and in the case of movies, even old releases being updated can push behind a brand new release. I was wondering if there was a better theming that might prioritize better brand new movies and TV shows over repeating ones?

Full disclosure, I haven't yet made the switch away from the official client yet, but you could give Wholphin a try for android TVs. It lists customization as a selling point.

Thanks...I had no idea about Wholphin. I'll be trying it very soon. I was honestly hoping for some sort of way for people to notice the newer releases instead of the constant spamming from episodes they already might know about. Kinda how Netflix puts some titles on a bigger marquee than others. I reckon that involves a completely different skin, but not sure any does this.

honestly Wholfin being so nice to use was my last hurdle to getting the whole house over the JF from Plex, just a few remote users with uncommon players that still need Plex and once they upgrade I can be done with it for good after starting out with OSXBMC way back in the day and being a lifetime licence holder from the start of paid plans.
