Interesting Bastien - that would make the plugin code simpler.

Alexandre - is this old libdmapsharing code with the GDKPixbuf
instance interface on a branch or something where I could look
at it?

Actually, I forgot I found a better solution ;) libdmapsharing uses gdk-pixbuf if present, while getting only a filename from Rhythmbox, it loads the image, resize and convert to PNG (take a look at dacp_share_ctrl_int in dacp-share.c). I think it's still a better solution then including it directly in the API, because it's easier to port to other platforms and still keep the dependencies low.
