8 years ago It would probably be useful to support adding pictures to songs as well, at
least so that the default thumbnail provided by the video service could be
replaced.
I've decided to save the additional pictures out of the database instead of
saving them as BLOBs as pictures currently are. This is mainly to reduce the
size of the database. I think that for now it's best to leave the main picture
(cover, artist picture) management as is, perhaps move it to the same page
where the additional pictures are. Later on it's easy to move main pictures out
of the database as well, if it makes sense.
I'm unsure what to do about versioning of additional pictures. For now it seems
that it's better to ignore that, meaning additional pictures won't be saved
with archived entry versions. Saving all pictures every time one of them is
changed wastes too much space. It would be possible to handle each picture
individually so that they'd only be saved when new pictures are added, but
that's more tricky to implement, and considering the pictures aren't
informational data, versioning them isn't as important anyway. I'll add
versioning to additional pictures later if needed. Main picture will be
versioned as it is now.Original comment by rii...@gmail.com on 3 Jul 2012 at 8:41
