So I pull a thumbnail w/ the HTTP api which returns a content type of text/html.

Would it be possible to return a proper image format header instead of text/html without using some type of proxy server?

http://192.168.2.151:80/xbmcCmds/xbmcHtt...fb9315.tbn

Which the server responds w/

HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Server: GoAhead-Webs
Pragma: no-cache
Cache-control: no-cache
Content-Type: text/html

I'll take a peek at that as I know it used to be returned as a base64 encoded img tag.

It looks like it was deprecated but still there. Try this as a test please:

** edit ** i know this is a half-assed work around. The content type should just be corrected to be Content-type: image/jpg

This part tells me that this issue doesn't exist (at least in its current form) in recent builds:

I think the problem would still exist as the httpapi code was designed around html'ifed responses.

Sort of works but only displays part of the image.

This is for my CommandFusion remote. CommandFusion iViewer has been updated and greatly eases scrollable list creation.

I suspect JSON-RPC will make this easier for you. Though it's not supported on XBOX if that's an issue.

Here is the command to do it
