Images
There are three image types that are currently used in the service to illustrate collections and the detail page of an asset.
16:9 (1920 x 1080 or 1920 x 600)- used for featured collections, 16:9 collections, continue watching collection, genre collections, the main image on the details page and Live Channel collections
2: 3 Poster (680 x 1020) - used for movie vod collections, entitled collections, bookmarked collections like a watchlist or downloaded movies list, related content and the small image next to the title on the details page of an asset
Channel logo (300x300) - used in the EPG view, on top of the image of Live channel collections (featured, favourite and live) and on the details page next to the title if no poster image is available
Make sure to use files that are not larger than 5 MB. Otherwise, the mobile apps might not be able to show the image.
Recommendations for your service
If you have a VOD service then you will need 16:9 and poster images to get the best result. You can then freely choose different collection types and use all the features that we provide.
If you have Live TV channels you will need all three image types to cover the various use cases. Remember to upload a light and dark version of the channel logo.
We also recommend that you consider a 60px bleed from all sides to your main image focus.
On featured hero collections buttons and texts will be added on the right corner of the image.
