Thumbnail|Quality Registry entry

Specify the compression quality of thumbnails generated when adding images to the Multimedia module.

In versions of EMu prior to 5.1, adding an image to the Multimedia module automatically generates a thumbnail version of the image (90x90px) with default compression settings. With this Registry entry it is possible to specify the compression quality (and hence file size) of thumbnails generated when an image is added to the Multimedia module.

Usage

This Registry entry is assigned at the system level only:

Key System
Key 1 System
Key 2 Setting
Key 3 Multimedia
Key 4 Thumbnail
Key 5 Quality
Value value
System Setting Multimedia Thumbnail Quality value

where:

value

is a number from 1 (lowest image quality and highest compression) to 100 (best quality but least effective compression).

The lower the compression quality, the smaller the file size of the thumbnail.

Note: If this entry is not present, a value of 100 is used.

Example

This entry specifies a compression setting of 70 for thumbnails, which provides a reasonable trade-off between image quality and file size:

Key Setting
Key 1 System
Key 2 Setting
Key 3 Multimedia
Key 4 Thumbnail
Key 5 Quality
Value 70
