How to adjust thumbnail resolution and quality

The preferred way of changing the thumbnail resolution and quality is by changing the appropriate values in the TranscodePresetDocument in a shape tag.

To adjust resolution;

CODE

<thumbnailResolution>
<width>1200</width>
<height>800</height>
</thumbnailResolution>

To adjust quality;

CODE

<setting>
 <key>thumbnailcompression</key>
 <value>75</value>
</setting>

Where the value 75 is default and lower value gives you a more reduced quality.

NOTE: Quality adjustment is only supported for images.
