Hmm, seems that it gets resized...
becuase the icon I had was 512x512px this one is even bigger but it turns out just as small... |

it suppose to get resize, but or your album cover is too big or your cdArt is too small ! and I really dont know why because it seems nobody else have this problem.
you never told me what your resolution 1080p or 720p |

I'm running 720p most of the time(testing). Album covers are from 500x to 1500x but they resize fine, no problem with that. it's cdart that is messing up

Just how I do it:
Open Gimp Open the picture of the cd you want to work with. Go to Layer>Transparency>Add Alpha Channel Select the Ellipse Select Tool, and make a selection around the outside of the cd as shown. ![[Image: gimpcdcutout1.jpg]](http://img238.imageshack.us/i/gimpcdcutout1.jpg/) ![[Image: w1152.png]](http://g.imageshack.us/img238/gimpcdcutout1.jpg/1/) Click Select>Invert (or just hit CTRL+I) Click Cut (or hit CTRL+X) Then select the inside of the cd the same way and cut it out. Click off the image Go to Image>AutoScale Go to Image>Scale Image and set it to 500X500 pixels. You should be left with this. ![[Image: gimpcdcutout2.jpg]](http://img244.imageshack.us/i/gimpcdcutout2.jpg/) ![[Image: w1152.png]](http://g.imageshack.us/img244/gimpcdcutout2.jpg/1/)

Quote: Is there a way to get fallback on fanart too?no that I know, but if you have other pictures in the root artist_fanart folder I mean directly in the artist_fanart folder(no in artist/band folder) if you have a picture or pictures there like general pictures and the media player dont find fanart in the individual folder it will load pictures from there |
