ipod Artwork files are massive
Last modified: 2009-01-13 19:11:46 UTC
Please describe the problem: Going into /media/IPOD/iPod_Control/Artwork provides files with the pattern f100*.ithumb which are MASSIVE. Looking in ghex shows a load of 0s which shouldn't be there, it's only artwork not a full movie (6 = just over 150mb) Steps to reproduce: 1. Get latest Banshee 2. Get Album Artwork 3. Sync 4. Look at the room used Actual results: Files are massive Expected results: Files shouldn't be that bit and full of 0s Does this happen every time? Yeah Other information:
I can confirm this. iPod nano 4G: 3.5GB audio / 1.8GB other!
I can confirm too. iPod Classic 6G: 6.5GB audio / 9.7GB video / 2.1GB other. Files in "/media/TATER/iPod_Control/Artwork" are: ArtworkDB: 669.0 KB ArtworkDB.bak 428.1 KB F1055_1.ithmb 365.6 MB F1060_1.ithmb 1009.2 MB F1061_1.ithmb 265.6 MB F1068_1.ithmb 128.0 KB Banshee-1 1.4.1 Ubuntu Intrepid

I can confirm this. I have 8.9 Gigs of audio, with 4.95 Gigs of artwork. On the disk on my computer, the artwork folder only consumes 122 MB, and when synced with itunes on a windoze machine it only consumes 121 MB, which is appropriate for the artwork size. I wish I were a programmer so I could work on things like this myself...but alas, I am not! :( Thanks, David
