Server - set a max width/height or size of People images

[anderbytes 139]

Looking at server today I see one bad thing.... the people pictures takes TOO MUCH diskspace.

 

Thinking about this, I suggest some new features:

- Ability to fix a max width/height of any people image (and make ffmpeg reduce it proportionally, if needed)

- Ability to fix a max Kb size of any people image (and make ffmpeg reduce it proportionally, if needed)

 

- Ability to fix a max Nº of people for each item... most of times people don't want to know the photo of the truck driver that appeared at 1h03m07s in the movie... usually we only see the 10 first... something like this.

 

 

For what I can see... lots of images are bigger than 80 or 100Kb, which I guess is already too much for a simple small face in the screen.

Hey devs... If I manually create a script to auto-reduce those JPGs, would it do any damage to how Emby shows those photos?

no, you'll be fine.

Thanks! If I'm not too lazy, soon I'll post it in tools section.
