Official moOde 7.1.0 support thread

[Tim Curtis]

Hello,

I just made a fresh install of Moode 7.1.0 which I discover coming from 6.7.1. Thank you for the updates regarding the album/tag views which are better suited for a classical audio collection.

There is still/yet an issue with the thumbnail resolution in preferences/library/ : the "auto" setting still does not seem to work as intended and lower resolution (200px and 300px) are unfortunately no more available.

My screen is a full HD 13,3" (notebook). All the art covers are 500p x 500 px. The "auto" mode generates 100px thumbnails. In  the standard Album view (6 columns) these thumnbnails are scaled up by Firefox in full screen mode to 180 px which leads to blurry thumbail covers. The auto mode behavior has not changed from 6.7.1 (I did not use it) but it is now impossible to force the resolution to 200px thumbnails which is the best (slight downscaling).

200px is reported by Firefox to be the resolution of radio icons which are displayed as 180px.

There is yet no other choice in Album mode but to use of resolution of 400 px which is far too much and makes the UI  not as snappy as before.

Q1 : is it possible to restore the lower resolutions  (including 200px) ?

The system info tab shows two parameters : cover blur (=20px) and cover scale (1.25).

Q2 : What are these settings, are they linked with the "auto" issue and where can they be set ?

Thank you for you help.

Regards.

Philippe

Q1 : is it possible to restore the lower resolutions (including 200px) ?
A: I'm not sure I understand whats causing your performance issue. Any modern Laptop should easily and quickly render 400px images. My old iPad mini has no problem quickly rendering 600px cover images. Safari Browser.

The system info tab shows two parameters : cover blur (=20px) and cover scale (1.25).
Q2 : What are these settings, are they linked with the "auto" issue and where can they be set ?
A; Those settings control how the full screen cover backdrop appears. They have nothing to do with cover thumbnails.
