My Question or Issue

 Adding a picture to a playlist, even though it is 4k (3MB)(3840 × 2160), has poor quality and is blurry. I do not have a solution to this and help would be appreciated!

 

(picture I added is only 207x207 but that is just an example of a blurry image)

Hey @Droxyz

 

I also have noticed big images getting hazy, but for now I've got good results by decreasing the image so it's somewhere between 300x300 and 900x900 pixels.

 

Smaller image files look considerably sharper.

 

Let me know how you get on 🙂

Thanks,

It made the quality a bit better but still is a bit blurry. But I guess it's just because of spotify.

I guess you are right, having the same issue with 2000x2000 1MB, they might compress the image on a certain size, looking worse than the actual max resolution, that should be limited by file size.

Here is an optimization example for a cover. I reduced from 2000x2000 pixel to 1442x1442 pixel. This gives you a much better quality. Have a look lt the screenshots before and after.
