Stretched Box Art #288

Open The0zymandias opened 2 months ago

The0zymandias commented 2 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I first want to say that I really like this project and can't wait to see where else it goes. However, when I imported some games from lutris, the box art for the games was stretched.

Describe the solution you'd like In my case, the box art is stretched vertically. Instead of doing this, have you considered not stretching and simply putting a gradient above and below? Or at least having a setting for it. Thank you.

It does put a blurred background there if the aspect ratio mismatch is greater than some threshold. The difference between Cartridges and Lutris is not that much though. I feel like stretching a bit is preferable to thin bars, especially with rounded corners, but this is mostly a question of personal preference.

Could you consider cropping (or zoom) wrong aspect ratio instead of stretching?

That sounds a lot worse, especially because cover art can have eg. borders. I'd rather just always pad it then.
