[QUOTE="horned_reaper, post: 1276316, member: 109929"] There always is a solution. ;) Option 1 (preferred): You can add transparent bars to the empty spaces on resizing. But then the image format would need to be PNG because the JPG format doesn't support transparent colors. Look at attached example. I've replaced the FH JPG album image with the resized PNG image and set the original name (Various Artists-Sunshine Live, Volume 19L.jpg). It works fine - the album thumb is displayed not cropped and not distorted in the Playing Now screen. Option 2: Just use the non-quadratic image (in this case 600 x 528 pixels) as it is. This is what MediaPortal does with embedded file covers. But then album covers get slightly distorted. I've successfully tested this option as well. [/QUOTE]
