For thumbnails, we use URL's like this whenever possible: http://192.168.0.2:9000/music/6df5a901/cover_128xX_p.jpg In my experience, this doesn't actually return .jpg, but either .jpg, .png, whatever, depending on what format you've got on the server. Once saved locally we render them unscaled. Is it album artwork, radio artwork, or what? For some artwork (like remote thumbnails from MOG), we load the thumbnails from the remote server (a non-Logitech server) and scale locally. Because some of the images are *huge* coming inbound from the network, we resample first at ~double the desired resolution to avoid overflowing the device heap (pretty easy to do), then scale the resulting image to our exact requirements. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ db122's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4076 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92330 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
