Built a media player component today that selects from my ShieldTV as a cast-based media player, as an Android TV-based media_player, and my PS4. However, despite the fact that the universal player populates artwork just fine, the mini player does not show it:
For what it's worth, I am using a state-template to overwrite the state - entirely because depending on what app I'm using, the artwork/metadata fills out better on one vs the other method of accessing the Shield. I don't know why this is.
I did a close inspection on the code on the page and it doesn't seem to be rendering anything at all for the background-image in the web code:
<div class="mmp-player__core flex">
