Ok, I've discussed this at #edevelop with some folks, I'll probably use e_thumb myself because for Canola we need a special, non-standard size: instead of bounding box of 128x128 or 256x256 we need a fixed height of 96 with variable width (see http://www.marceloeduardo.com/blog/design/graphical-design/canola-20-design-process-the-photo-viewer). So using the fdo stuff will not help that much, at least not at this part... sure we can try to use fdo sizes for video thumbs or something else. As for e_thumb, I did a quick view of its code and looks nice and small, that's great, but I wonder: - how expensive is evas/ecore_evas_buffer in comparison to imlib2 to generate thumbs; - saving to eet the uncompressed data really help? Ok, this is more about testing on our hardware, but maybe it will not help and it's cheaper to uncompress a JPEG than read pixels from flash (flash slowness versus cpu usage). In that case, what's the best option to save the image as JPEG? Create an evas_object_image on the same canvas, set it's pixesl to buffer pixels and then evas_object_image_save() it? Also, what to change in e_thumb to make it the perfect "epsilon"? fdo-compatible saving? Use epeg? I'll have a look at this next week, so any tips before that is appreciated :-) -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri -------------------------------------- Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ#: 17249123 Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (81) 9927 0010 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
