Some album cover thumbs have weird colours.

This:
If I click on the albu cover to see larger version, it's ok. But many, many thumbnails are like this.

Try changing the album cover. Click on any cover, then click the change link underneath it. Select the cover you like. I usually use 300X300 covers.

I don't think this is a good idea. I'd rather find a fix for the issue. I have over 7000 albums in my library, 75% of them I have ripped myself and scanned every album cover in 1400x1400 so I'd rather use them than use some scan found somewhere else.

This is from a different thread from someone with the same issue.
archrival wrote:I did some research into this and it appears the cover art that is showing up strange have bad JPEG headers. Using a tool like ExifTool
http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/ to add/edit EXIF headers actually rewrites the JPEG header in a way that Java ImageIO reads it properly (it does so losslessly). I took a look at the code and it appears to be a problem with the way Java reads the JPEG and not Subsonic. I tried different ways of reading the JPEG and they all did the same thing. Although still feel free to try to fix it.
Found in this thread.

I had this issue with a few of my album covers and I downloaded HQ replacements from allcdcovers.com. Most covers there are 1427x1427 or higher.
also have this issue

I would also love to see a resolution to this issue as well.
I have 6000+ albums, and maybe 1 in 10 has this cover art issue.
The thread referenced seems to point to Java as the culprit (not Subsonic).
I wonder why the art comes up fine, however, once it is clicked on. Is the larger version not using the same method?
I would love to offer up a partial bounty, and pool some cash together for the coder to get this resolved if possible.
