Cover thumbnails in standby are not correctly resized. #334

Your model / PRS+ version?

PRS 650 / Nightly R.068

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open attached book. (It's a ripped version, just the cover, from a legally 
owned ebook).
2. Enable cover thumbnail in standby.
3. Go to standby.
4. Instead of the full cover, you'll see just a small part of it (In fact, the 
upper middle section of the cover without any resizing so just ..os..).

Hi there,

I've taken a look at the epub but I can't see anything obvious.

The standby image does not simply use the cover image, though.  It generates 
the first page of the book.  So my guess is that something in the 
stylesheet/page-template is causing the problem.  But as I said, I can't see 
what it is.

I have had a few covers not display nicely on standby.  After trying 
unsuccessfully to fix one and wasting a couple of hours I decided to live with 
it!

Sincerely,
Ben.

I'll upload two camera taken pictures (cover and standby) ASAP

I attach two pictures from the former ebook.

+ One screenshot showing the cover (and only) page of the e-book.
+ The other one is a picture taken with my camera of the e-reader in standby. 
You'll clearly see the trouble.

(It's not a serious issue, but nevertheless if you can fix it, the best... If 
it is hard or annoying, just forget about it)

This looks like the mini-cover option is on.  Can you check your Standby 
settings?  The Standby Image Type should be "Current Book Cover" and just to be 
safe make sure "Display Mini Cover Overlay on Standby" is set to No.

Sorry Ben.

This really seems what we call a "sea bream talk" in Spanish... ;-p . I
suppose my English (both understanding and expressing myself) is really
WORSE than I thought.

The mini-cover option is intentionally on. The problem I intended to show
was that the obtained mini-cover is not the full cover but just a small
piece of it.

And after re-reading your first answer, NOW I understand that you can
perfectly replicate the issue. But you can't locate inside the code what is
causing it.

If it helps, I'll play a little with Sigil commenting things out till I can
get which setting inside the epub triggers it. More over I'm going to start
now.

(Forget about the pictures, I uploaded them because I had formerly
understood that you couldn't replicate the bug).

Ooops. This really seems a WEIRD issue.

Look at the modified attached file. It's a perfect clean file. No CSS, no tag 
classes, no page-template, nothing at all. I've even fixed the <guide> section 
in content.opf which Sigil kept with all the previous items.

Well, the issue is still present. So something inside the jpg file as a trigger?

(I'll test using cover.jpg in another epub which is correctly shown in mini 
cover overlay).
