Image/Photo renderer
« on: August 12, 2012, 02:52:25 am »

Two small observations after playing with the renderer to display images and photos.

- MC do not rotate JPG photos if necessary, reading EXIF info to get orientation. Some Media Servers
will serve properly rotated photos, while other do not and just serverthe original file

- when playing an image, MC returns TransportState = PAUSED_PLAYBACK. It should probably return PLAYING to not
confuse control points. That seems to be what most images renderers do, including WMP.


EDIT:  I can't seem to find a setAVTransportURI / Play combination that allow to display consecutive images without MC
reverting to its UI instead of just displaying the photos.

Our server rotates the images if conversion is turned on. If not, the image is transmitted as is.
It seem like if the image is received by MC's renderer with an exif tag we could probably assume it hasn't been converted and then rotate it accordingly.

Will check into the play state. Thanks..
