Good point, and I like the pause idea.. I was going to put basic controls on a submenu of the tray menu too, and maybe an option to turn global media player keystrokes on and off..

I presumed it went and got the > thumbnails directly. Album art.. I presume you mean for the library rather than the now playing cover, which just (as previously) grabs the image from the url: http://<server>music/current/thumb.jpg?<player id> So the library album art... Firstly it looks at the 'thumbnails' setting in the options dialog. If this is set to an empty string, it doesnt display thumbnails in the library window. If this is set to a valid folder, it looks in the folder for a file named: "<thumbnails folder>\<artist> - <album> - 100.jpg", "<thumbnails folder>\<artist> - <album>", "<thumbnails folder>\<artist> - <album>.jpg", "<thumbnails folder>\<artist>\<album>\folder.jpg", "<thumbnails folder>\<artist>\<album>\thumb.jpg", "<thumbnails folder>\<artist>\<album>\cover.jpg", If none of these are found, it asks the server for the file: "http://<sServer>/music/<AlbumArtworkID>/cover.jpg" This should be the same image as displayed on the artwork view webpages I think.. This'll be where the server thumbnail settings come in and you'll probably need to be scanning for artwork, etc.. Anyhow, if it finds an image, and it's bigger than 100x100, it does a bicubic resize down to 100x100 and saves the thumbnail as: "<thumbnails folder>\<artist> - <album> - 100.jpg" If it finds an image and it's already 100x100 or less, it saves it as: "<thumbnails folder>\<artist> - <album>" (note the lack of extension - this is so it works with pngs and stuff..)
