cover art, cover size

[supermood 75]

hi

is there a possibility to slightly change the size of the covers? for my skin arctic zephire reloaded this standard is not as beautiful as it could be...I saw that with other skins as well.

maybe just adding some px would solve that? 

thanks

Hi, what do you mean by adding some px?

[supermood 75]

Pixel, size, sorry. if you zoom in my picture you see that the covers are to small. that's just ugly... and is probably an easy fix?

Hi. The issue is that the app is showing a background for the items and that particular treatment is designed with a transparent border (because it has rounded edges).

A different treatment style, like one of the "metro" ones will fit better in that display.

thanks! didn't know that in a change the layout. I still find the menu in that addon a bit confusing.. will try later. thanks!!

no the metro doesn't look like a case at all. and the corners are not the real issue. it's height and width. do you know in which file the size is maintained? maybe I play around a bit with it?

It isn't about the size.  The treatment you are using has transparent borders and rounded corners and the container the app is showing it in has a background and square corners.  No matter what you do with the size this is literally a round peg in a square hole .

?? 

I don't care about the corners. I see 4 nearly straight lines here, or better I see 8, because it just doesn't fit, the cover is surely to small. 

I would be an huge win if it's still with round corners hit the same size. 

it's not a round peg in square hole. it's just to small.

I was always good in math  

and it's to small for other skins I've tried..

Well what is the original size of your image file?

[supermood 75]

I don't know. emby is managing my meta data. Basically everything is on standard settings I guess. 

here you see a picture from emby, same problem

It's the drop shadow of the image treatment that creates what looks like a gap.

Again, its not the size...

The only thing that will completely solve this would be to eliminate that type of treatment and only have ones with more square edges or to have an option in the app(s) to not show a container background if a valid image loads.

what you are saying is that this design is not working for anyone, in no case, it's a design issue, poorly designed.

the only solution is not to use it. right? 

so why is it in the addon as option?
