Gaussian blur on background images
I am trying to find a way to blur a poster image for the background of a content detail page. Is this possible and if so can you point me in the right direction. Nathan

2 ideas:
1) Plex almost surely is doing this processing on the server side. They do other heavyweight things like transcoding video before sending to the Roku for display.
2) I've done some fiddling with Poster node's loadWidth/loadHeight/loadDisplayMode lately and it seems that there is some smoothing that happens when resampling images. Could be useful for your desired effect.
EDIT: adding examples:
Original 1920x1080 image
160x90 for loadWidth/loadHeight:
