Win Album Thumbnail Resolution Issues
#1
Hello...

I have painstakingly set the album art for 1,000+ albums at a 700x700 resolution artwork, integrated into the music files using TagScanner. The corresponding JPEG files reside in the album folder as well.

However, the thumbnails/album art appear grainy/low resolution.

Since Windows generated (automatically)

"AlbumArtSmall....jpg"
"Folder.jpg"

... images (found via "show hidden files" folder setting) I was wondering if the problem would be resolved by simply deleting these files?

Would KODI then use the larger images as the default?
Would KODI generate its own lower res images and continue to serve up crappy album thumbnails?
Worse yet, will this somehow foul up everything, and I will realize I should have just tolerated grainy albums?

Any and all suggestions suited for a novice are greatly appreciated....

Just want to check with the council of elders before proceeding. Thanks!

Jake

If you delete the thumbnails folder in your userdata folder that should force a rescan of the images available. I think you can also delete textures.db file in database folder also located in your userdata folder.

Thanks for the quick reply. Appreciate the confirmation. I tried it on a test batch of folders and it seemed to work. I'm not familiar with the second file (textures), so I'll do some homework on it. Thanks, again.
