loss of quality of downloaded pictures

[Soul Destroyer]

After upping a few LZ1 covers to play around with and then viewing and redowning from site; the artwork has all been compressed so that when viewing online or the downed version fragments and compression and loss of quality are very obvious.

Example attached:

up is the version uploaded.

bu is the version downloaded which retains the same ration but clearly a loss of quality is exhibited.

I`m I missing a setting????
Any help would be great thanks

Chevereto doesn't compress uploaded images. To demonstrate it, I've generated a checksum (MD5) for that image:



Which is the same as you can see here http://demo.chevereto.com/i/ljG:



Finally, I downloaded the image (from Chevereto) and the MD5 is the same.

Always test on the demo website first. Most likely you have a second level optimization (CDN and stuff like that).

There is a bug in the uploader, I just found it. Let me work on it and I will post a hotfix asap.

 

[Soul Destroyer]

Ok thanks mate
Nice one.

 

[Rodolfo]

app/lib/chevereto.js

Replace this:

if(!queue_is_url && f.parsedMeta.mimetype !== "image/gif" && typeof f.formValues !== typeof undefined && f.formValues.width !== f.parsedMeta.width) {

With this:

if(!queue_is_url && f.parsedMeta.mimetype !== "image/gif" && typeof f.formValues !== typeof undefined && f.formValues.width != f.parsedMeta.width) {

Seems to work a treat mate

Hi! I am having the same trouble since V3.7.5 and even after changing the line mentioned above it's still randomly not working.
Example: If I edit Image infos before, the uploaded image is still blurred. Example:



Also I noticed, that the redirect after upload doesn't work anymore:

Thanks in advance for bugfix Rodolfo. 🙂

The patch needs you to wipe your browser cache. It also applies for any kind of server or CDN cache.

Thank you. Seems to work now.
Only the redirecting to the embed codes is still not working

Your script files are outdated. Most likely due to a server side cache. You will need to wipe all caches, until you see this:

In the website source code.
