Album Art Display on n-Stream

The file path names (including the filename) of delayed album icons are around 200 characters, so below the limit you mention.

To further investigate it would be nice to know the relationship between the length of the URI and the length of the file pathname or if simpler to communicate how the URI is build. Simon, can you help?

If you have Linn Kinsky for Windows, you can right-click on any track and click Details to see the URI for the audio data and the URI for the album art.

Here's an example from my own library of a URI for embedded album art:

http://192.168.0.10:9790/minimserver/*/music/musicfiles/CDGIM040/CDGIM040-08-Hei*20mihi,*20Domine.flac/$!picture-1096-16241.jpg

The file path contains two space characters that are expanded to the sequence *20 in the URI. This expansion of special characters can make the URI significantly longer than the file path in some cases.
