Calibre-web: Low resolution on cover downloads

[olskar]

Hello!

I recently started using this software and liked it a lot!

When updating metadata from google books, the cover that gets downloaded is very low resolution (only a thumbnail)

Example-URL:
http://books.google.com/books/content?id=PotjAgAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=1&edge=curl&source=gbs_api

By adding &fife=w800-h900 to the end, the image that gets downloaded is highres.

Furthermore, by removing &edge=curl you dont get the slightly odd-looking pagecurl on the bookcovers.

I am not sure where in the code this can be changed though :)

The request are created in cps/static/js/get_meta.js

Thanks @OzzieIsaacs I had a look but not sure my js-skills are up to it

Do you know btw if this is happening for you as well or only me @OzzieIsaacs ? That it downloads only low res covers I mean

[OzzieIsaacs]

You are right from google the cover files are downloaded in low-res

[olskar]

Yes and by adding &fife=w800-h900 to the end of the request, high res will be downloaded instead. Are you able to add this in the Code somehow @OzzieIsaacs ? :)
