Pixelated Flickr wallpaper, 1920x1080
Pixelated Flickr Wallpaper 1366x768 |
||
Worth noting: All wallpaper positioning have been tested (scaled, scaled & cropped, scaled keep proportions, centered, tiled). Doesn't fix or affect the bug in any way. Probably needs to send a suffix to the flickr API [1], such as _h which will give us 1600x1600 images. Unfortunately, I often get an "unavailable" image back from the API when I do this :/ [1] https://www.flickr.com/services/api/misc.urls.html Still exists! Please check!

Pixelated Flickr Wallpaper 1366x768
Hi, I'm running Arch Linux with KDE Plasma 5.10.4, KDE Frameworks 5.36.0 and QT 5.9.1 and I can reproduce this issue on my system. I attached a screenshot.

Created attachment 104681 [details] Pixelated Flickr wallpaper, 1920x1080 As stated in the title, Flickr Picture of the Day wallpaper is pixelated (not correct resolution downloaded from Flickr servers?). Affects at least resolutions 1366x768 and 1920x1080. The issue makes usage of Flickr wallpaper quite uncomfortable (not completely useless but at the moment I see Flickr wallpaper as a less-preferred choice). The attached picture demonstrates the issue (hopefully clearly enough). The bug has been there ever since I started using Plasma 5 Desktop (from ver. 5.9.2 to 5.9.4).
