Jellyfin 10.11 plugin: a scheduled task that labels each library card with the library name over a representative backdrop (Noto Sans, centered, soft shadow), matching Jellyfin's default cover style. Supports source rules (top-rated / random / newest) and per-library pinned sources. Sets images via the internal provider API so the home-screen view cache updates without a server restart.

[1.0.0] - 2026-07-19
Added
- Scheduled task ("Generate Placard library cards") that bakes each library's name onto a representative backdrop, matching Jellyfin's default cover style (Noto Sans, centered, soft drop shadow over a darkening scrim).
- Backdrop source rules: highest-rated / random / newest title in the library.
- Per-library pinned sources (
Library Name=Item Title) to override the rule. - Configuration page (enable, source rule, scrim opacity, label size, pins).
- SkiaSharp-based renderer, incl. a procedural SMPTE color-bars generator for views that have no media backdrop.
Notes
- Sets images through the internal provider API, so the home-screen view cache updates without a server restart.
- Special views (Live TV / Playlists) are scaffolded (
IncludeSpecialViews, color-bars renderer) but not yet wired into the task. Planned for 1.1.
