Embedded artwork: do not show not-square images

Open leandroalonso opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

When displaying RSS artwork, some of them will have a rectangular aspect. Eg.:

Now Playing artwork Now Playing
IMG_2384 IMG_2388

For this kind of content, we should ignore it and not show it.

I discovered something similar. But in my case is more the aspect ratio.

A feedback from 7352711-zen:

I think if the podcast creator embeds a non-square artwork into the episode it should still be honored by the podcast player. Rectangular art in the Now Playing lockscreen and notification in iOS is correctly handled and displayed, and there shouldn't be a need to hide it from the listener.

I just wanted to send feedback on a proposed change that would negatively affect my own personal experience using the app.
