2009-03-06 15:40:57 Jorge Castro banshee: statusexplanation I've can confirm with that exact album art (good choice!). I've noticed when using rhythmbox it is also blurry, so I think this is notify-osd scaling the art so I am reassigning it there. Maybe it's the scaling algorithm notify-osd uses, there is a similarly sized thumbnail on the main banshee ui by the slider and it doesn't look too blurry, but I'm just measuring with the naked eye.

According to upstream Banshee they do a resize to 42px: http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/banshee/trunk/banshee/src/Extensions/Banshee.NotificationArea/Banshee.NotificationArea/NotificationAreaService.cs?revision=5084&view=markup Upstream would like us to file a bug if they're supposed to be doing something different, I don't see anything in the notify-osd guidelines or the notification spec that mention scaling of images at all so I don't know what the apps are supposed to here.

This is because Banshee is scaling down the artwork before sending it in the notification. It should scale down the artwork only when sending it to notification-daemon specifically. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotificationDevelopmentGuidelines#blurry> (Problems with blurry icons in other programs should be in separate bug reports.)
