Download grids instead of covers #1399

Closed denisidoro closed 5 years ago

denisidoro commented 5 years ago

Grids (let's define it as width > height) play nicer than covers (height > width).

Covers, when in fullscreen mode, are scaled and cropped.

The metadata downloader could use https://www.steamgriddb.com, for example. It even has some APIs.

Support for additional metadata providers will be done in #417. People from Discord are already planning to implement them after #417 is done (especially steam grid ones), therefore I'm closing this.
