Ability to choose background image scale filter #1774

Open Unknow0059 opened 4 years ago

Unknow0059 commented 4 years ago

Description Background image in game page is blurry. Settings > General > Appearance > Blur Background is off. It should not be blurry, because the original image is not blurry - in fact, it's as crisp as it could be, since it's pixel art - and the setting above is turned off. Proposed solution Let user choose which scaling filter is used, between Bilinear and Nearest Neighbor (NN). The choice would apply to selected game categories. Perfect integer scaling is not necessary, because when NN is used, at least the pixels are not blurred.

This should be IMHO selectable on per-game (image) basis.

This would be quite useful especially for romhacks and hombrew games that don't have any official or fan-made covers.
