Coverflow TV Shows showing one show multiple times #237

The coverflow on my apple tv for tv shows results in more than one poster as soon as there are more seasons of that particular show.
For example I have 10 TV shows all containing one season, I will see ten posters passing by in the coverflow. As soon as I add another season to one of the shows, the poster for this particular show will come up twice on the coverflow. It looks as if instead of tv shows, the coverflow lists seasons, but the artwork is always the same, being that of the show.
I would like to know if it is possible to have a tv show listed only ones in the coverflow even if it has multiple seasons.

Are you talking about the preview lefthand of you library sections?
Look at library.xml - the covers to show are requested at PMS, reflecting the top 20 of the "recently added"

{{URL(key)}}/recentlyAdded?stack=1&X-Plex-Container-Start=0&X-Plex-Container-Size=20

You request - if I understood it correctly - is to use a different "collection" of covers, right?

Thank you for your respond! I do indeed mean the preview lefthand of the library sections. I do understand from your answer that it shows only the last 20 recently added shows. Question 1. Can I configure it to show all shows? My main problem however is that when I added for example 24 with 8 seasons, i see 8 times the same cover of 24 passing by instead of only ones, what seems logical because it shows the art of the show, not the seasons. Question 2. Is it possible to see only one cover of each tv show passing by instead of multiple times the same cover for as many times as there are seasons? Thanks a lot for helping me with this!

Hello Ibaa,

I tried to replace the {{URL(key)}} with recentlyviewed and that worked. Then however I still see seasons in the preview of TV Shows.
Would it be possible to change the {{URL(key)}} to have it look at toplevel tv shows? In PMS the toplevel shows only tv shows fan art, so I guess this would result in a cover flow preview of single tv shows instead of seasons. Thanks for helping.
