A feature I'd like to see added to a future version of MediaMonkey (MM) is that ability to resize existing album art. Specifically, the user can specify what size he/she wants the album art to be, and MM will automatically resize it to that size.
My player (a Sony NWZ-A818) has trouble displaying album when it is larger than 240 pixels by 240 pixels. Due to this, when album art is larger than that size I have to save the album art, delete it from the song, resize it to the proper size, and then insert it back into the song.
For me, the ideal way for this to be handled is that (I will use a desired size of 240 pixels X 240 pixels to illustrate):
- MM analyzes each album art file to determine if it exceeds the desired size.
- If the album art does exceed that size, it determines which dimension is larger (width or height)
- It adjusts the picture's size so that the larger dimension is the desired size, and the other dimension is adjusted by the proportional amount (if the album art is 300 pixels by 200 pixels, it is adjusted to the following size: 240 pixels x 160 pixels) to ensure that the album art retains its original shape.
This feature would provide a benefit to individual's with players that have size limitations for album art.
