If you run max2play I assume you are not using an LMS Version solder than 7.8, right? Does that happen the second time you load the images, too? iPeng requests scaled artwork thumbnails also for artist images and usually they are cached both server- and client side, but the first time they need to be created by the server, first.
The MySB scaling has no effect here since the artwork images are first downloaded locally to your server and MySB is only being used for artwork downloaded directly from remote sites, like radio artwork, Spotify artwork and such. This sounds a bit like you are having issues with the artwork caching although I dont really understand why this might be an issue with the local caching on the iPeng side, too. Also, now that youve used iPeng you could also try a Clear&Rescan of your music library and maybe also clear the artwork cache (no idea how you do that on max2play, though). What usually happens is: the server pre-renders artwork thumbnails during the scan (which also downloads the artwork images). It does that using a number of known formats. When you run iPeng the first time, iPeng adds its own format to this list and then on consecutive scanner runs, the server will immediately create the thumbnails needed for iPeng, too. This speeds up the artwork handling a lo. One thing some people were having issues with is a broken artwork cache which essentially means every new image will have to be re-rendered all the time or problems with thumbnail creation which means iPeng will always load the full, unscaled image. None of all the above works with 7.7.x-versions of LMS on which iPeng has to use a slow, secondary process for loading the artist images and no aching occurs. --- learn more about iPeng, the iPhone and iPad remote for the Squeezebox and Logitech UE Smart Radio as well as iPeng Party, the free Party-App, at penguinlovesmusic.com *New: iPeng 9, the Universal App for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51929
