There is definitely a noticeable difference. We are downsizing photos to meet the requirements (and max resolution) of the client player. Others could be letting the device handle downscaling. We’ve been doing the downscaling ourselves because legacy Android couldn’t handle it, but it is something we should be able to improve on. We’ve opened an internal ticket to explore improving downscaling. There’s a chance we can employ the same methods Google has.
