| Retired Team Member |  Getting artist image from internet => scale best fit instead of fixed ratio MediaPortal Version: 0.2.1.0 MediaPortal Skin: Windows Version: XP SP2 CPU Type: AMD Athlon 64 3200+ HDD: Samsung SpinPoint HD300LD (7200rpm, ATA133, 8MB) (300GB) Memory: 1536 Mb DDR Motherboard: K8T Neo-FIS2R Motherboard Chipset: Via K800T Motherboard Bios: AMI 2.2 Video Card: Gigabyte FX5200 Video Card Driver: 84.13 Sound Card: sb Live 1024 OEM Sound Card AC3: No AC3 Sound Card Driver: 1.

In stead of the image being scaled 1:1 can a best fit be done to avoid squashing the artist head  ?

Country:  | Do a search - this has already been discussed - the skin files of PlayingNow and RadioLastFm already have the properties for zooming, etc you just need to change them.

| Retired Team Member | is this also true in browsing mode? in Blue Two, if I sort my music by ID3 tag, (use the database) I first see A-Z and the next level is the artists name. The images I see there are squashed if the image is not a 1:1 ratio equal How do I make MP not squashs the images in this view ?
