Resizing is done on the server. However, I believe that the use of the thumbnail jpegs in the directory (ie 'thumb.jpg', or whatever you would have configured it as) vanished from the server in 6.5. This is one reason why (IMO) trying to view album art is far slower with the later versions - it has to resize the images on the server before serving them, whereas previously it'd just pick up the thumbnail graphic which had been pre-sized correctly and serve that. -- gerph ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gerph's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1819 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32214 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
