typical filesize for chapter images? - Iacov - 2024-03-15

hey

i would like to enable the chapter image extraction, but i have no idea how much space that will occupy. what is a typical image size being extracted? i couldn't find the documentation page right now, but i remember it stating, that chapter images can amass a respectable size, but no info that would help me to estimate the size for my own librabry

as far as i understand, the image is being extraced in the file's original resolution, right? is there a huge difference between 480 and all the way to 4k? or is the compression high?
(in my specific case it doesn't matter that much, as i only have 480p and 720p files - but i'm interested how it works and the effect of different variables)

thank you very much in advance!

I'd have to check when I get home. I'll get back to you.

The range is 30KB to 80KB. For my ~9TB library, my Jellyfin data directory is about 3.7GB. 240 Movies, 4900 episodes, 4K songs.
