What is Display View doing to Cover Art?
« on: August 11, 2010, 12:04:14 am »

I have all my Cover Art scanned and touched up in Photoshop. The originals are 1417x1417 pixels in tif format. I use photoshop to generate a 1200x1200 jpg version of them because the resolution of my monitor is 1920x1200. When I used the standard Windows Picture viewer to view the jpg's, I cannot tell any difference from the master tif file. The jpgs are pristine looking.

The Cover Art looks great in all modes except in Display View. In Display View, if the image contains a lot of black then that black becomes blotchy/greyish. It is particularly bad on the left border.

What processing is DisplayView doing to the images? I would expect them to display at Desktop Resolution which is what I have set at. If so then it should not need to reprocess my Cover Art.
