Convert folder.jpg to cover.bmp
saratoga:
It would make more sense to add for support for jpeg album art then to add support for converting jpegs to bmps.
Llorean:
Yep, but that's already a feature we openly admit we want as long as it's done well.

I agree, and adding half measure workarounds never helped getting the real solution done...
RubenK:
So how difficult is it to do this? Could the jpg stuff be subtracted of the original firmware? Again, I don't no cr*p about programming, I just throw some ideas in. What's the main difference the developers chose for .bmp's over jpg's anyway?

No thats not legal and also stupidly difficult to do.

Throwing out ideas when you don't know what you're talking about is rarely a good idea.

We didn't have a JPG decoder in the core.
