superkaramba amarok script

[Lechio]

I'm trying to make a karamba script to control amarok and display the

info of the currently playing song (name of the song + time remaining + album cover). The

most part i've managed to do, but i'm stuck with a "small problem". The script

takes input from dcop to get the info from amarok and control it.

Now the problem is when it comes to display the images from the cover. The images get displayed

too big, on the original size that is... For instance if the album cover has an image

with a size of let's say 640*480 it get's displayed like that. Here's the preview that i get:

What i need is a way to convert this image (resize it for a smaller size (64*64) so that it can

fit on a background for displaying in karamba.

If anyone has some experience with python and can help out with this, it would be much appreciated.

Tanx :)

Can you pass it through the shell and use convert on it to change the size?

yap it works with convert. preview

The inconvenient is that it has to create new images...

But if there is no other solution for it i'll stick with this

Tanx mark :)
