I am not sure about this, currently we serve 320x320 px thumbnail via upnp:albumarturi, I am afraid that most of UPnP clients don't use upnp:icon Also most of server doesn't serve the upnp:icon as can be seen here: http://www.upnp-database.info/ Therefore I would maybe just increase the default resolution for upnp:albumarturi , but it could have rather a negative performance impact. I believe that 320x320 is enough (most of artwork in my DB is less than 320px) |

In that case it could be a user setting. Where the default would work as currently, but allows users to stream high res via upnp:albumarturi and thumbnail via upnp:icon. That way those who have invested effort in high res Art and have compatible clients can enjoy it while not breaking anything for the regular user. PS. Most Artwork with me is over 500px, with some over 2000px. However I do agree it may not be desirable from a performance point to increase the thumbnail size served. |

We could offer a customizable (per device) setting of the dimensions of images served over upnp:albumarturi Another solution would be to serve a higher resolution (probably at least 720pix - horizontal resolution of Galaxy S3) in a MM custom way, so that at least our Android and Windows 8 clients could benefit. |

I found a performance glitch, JPEG images lower than 320px were unnecessarily converted to 320px although they were only e.g. 110px. I fixed this, and now only images with resolution higher than 320px are converted to 320px. Fixed in build 4.1.10.1767 |

Studing more about the standard resolution and watching what others servers do: DLNA standard is 160 px Serviio offers 160x160 WMP offers 200x200 So I think that without a UI config we shouldn't go over 320px Left this issue opened to add the UI config (per client and per server) for MM5... |
