HDX - Cd booklets

Posted by: jlarsson on 31 July 2010

Would be nice if the HDX would recognize PDF files in the music directories and offered them to remote control clients.

Or even just the URL (HTTP) to the PDF.

On the iPod/iPhone/iPad it would make sense to view them and the operating system in these devices support PDF-viewing so it is not much work.

Without a defined industry standard for presentation and file size, this is probably a non-starter (though Apple did attempt this with the iTunes LP file package).

I'd be especially concerned that an oversized file would crash the browsing application (best case) or bring network traffic to a crawl (especially with multiple client requests on heteregenous, multiple-album playlists).
