Show images progressively #43

Closed lenzj closed 2 years ago

lenzj commented 3 years ago

I was browsing the site below using deedum on android and when I click on any of the links to images (pok3r, tg4x, gergoplex), deedum opens a blank page and won't display the image? Interestingly if I press the Android home button and then switch back to deedum it displays just the top 10% of the image?

A few alternative clients have been tried (Ariene, Lagrange, bombadillo) and they seem to be able to open the images fine on the above gemini site.

After further evaluation Ariene sometimes has an error with the site above as well. Sometimes Ariene opens the picture fine and sometimes it responds with "Permanent Failure:...". I'm guessing maybe the gemini server on the site may be only delivering partial images sometimes.

I'll leave this open for a few days to see if anyone else has thoughts/comments and then I'll close.

Beyond misbehaving servers, it would be nice to display images progressively.

This is almost certainly an Ariane bug. Ariane is very buggy, particularly with regards to URL handling. It should not be used as a reference.

This should be fixed in deedum, I reworked some of this during the new year, and images were handling re-rendering very poorly. The page in question seems to work much better now.
