Re: [Banshee-List] Feature hacking

[Kevin Anthony <kevin s anthony gmail com>]

Here is a patch, for the format, and file name.  i can add other formats if people need them:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660940

please test it and tell me what if there are any problems

As for picture size, i keep the picture size banshee downloads at.  i dont scale them down, and scaling them up, you will lose quality.

Finally got this installed. Along with my past suggestions (configure
format and file name) I have another suggestion... larger size
pictures. Seems all the album.jpg files it generated were 126 pxl
square or less...

Also, where does banshee get the art? I usually embed cover art in the
file, but on every file i've checked the picture is different.
