I believe you reported a (minor) bug where 1080p fanart got resized to 1920x1088 when adding to thumbnail cached.
I've added a commit to newclock3 that removes the aligning up of cached jpeg's width/height (and then tries to handle height/strides correctly later).
Can you test? In theory rescraping fanart after this change will result in slightly higher quality (when gui limit is 1080p).
I ran a quick test, and the image quality isn't noticeably different before/after, however the proportions are much better - correct 1920x1080 now, many thanks! Looking at the "before" artwork fullscreen on a 1920x1080 monitor using something like Windows Photo Viewer it's clear there are black borders being added due to the unusual proportions, but the "after" version is perfect, no borders. Presumably this would have been an issue for xbmc too.
Anyone that wants to know how to re-cache just fanart - details are here.
I'm building now with the patch reverted and will update shortly.
