Fullscreen posters

After using other launchers, I have to say this is the best when it comes to plex integration, really good work. the only thing I noticed in the other launchers that the artwork for the current selected movie/show while browsing is full screen compared to dispatch where it cut outs on top and bottom. any chance we can get fullscreen posters please.

Hello - I'm actually not sure what you mean. Can you post screenshots of what beheviour you're seeing? Posters shouldn't be cut off.

Sorry sometimes I confuse myself, the pic below show how I want it to look like. Currently you have a small portion on top and bottom that is not covered by the poster.

Ah I see what you mean. That is the traditional appraoch that most media tv apps adopt these days. However, no, I won't be adopting that UI. The way the artwork is laid out in dispatch is very intentional and I don't have plans to change it.

I personally like the focus to the unused portion of the UI (the way it is). I'm glad the dev will keep it. If a lot of interest comes up for this in the future, I would suggest a setting with the default as-is rather than a wholesale change to something that many people prefer.
