I noticed that , for the tracks of an album downloaded from Channel Classics and with tracks tagged with a 709x701 jpg file, the artwork is not displayed when using MinimServer as the music server and BubbleUPnP as the control point. When switching to other music servers like AssetUPnp or MediaMonkey, artwork for this album is correctly displayed.

If I retag the tracks with an equivalent but differently sized 500x500 jpg file, artwork is now correctly shown with MinimServer.

I took care of flushing the BubbleUPnP thumbnails cache before each try.

Could this be caused by some limitation imposed by MinimServer on the size (709x701 in my case) of the artwork embedded in tracks, or by a somehow corrupted jpg file ? MinimServer logs do not show any error related to this.

I tried to attach the 709x701 jpg file, but with no success because the file size is too big (713 K).

Thanks for your help.

THanks for uploading the test files.

I've tried all these files with both MinimServer and Asset UPnP, using BubbleUPnP and Kinsky as control points.

With MinimServer, Kinsky displays all the artwork and BubbleUPnP displays only the 500x500 artwork.

With Asset UPnP, Kinsky displays all the artwork and BubbleUPnP displays only the 500x500 artwork.

From these tests, it seems that BubbleUPnP is unable to display a 709x701 artwork image.

As you are getting the 709x701 artwork displayed with Asset UPnP and BubbleUPnP, you might have set "Size album art" in Asset UPnP to reduce the size of artwork that Asset UPnP sends to BubbleUPnP. I tried doing this in Asset UPnP, and all the images were then displayed by BubbleUPnP.

MinimServer doesn't currently have the capability to downsize album art. This is on the list of possible enhancements to be supported in a future release.
