Would probably not happen if the cover image was properly processed to begin with .
I currently do some post-processing on the contents of .kobo-images on my Aura ONE to reduce the size of the images without a perceptible loss in quality—they look streaky no matter what. I currently use djpeg and cjpeg, but I also have magick.

Is there anything I can do in a similar manner after the images have been uploaded to my device by Calibre that could mitigate this effect? I was unable to build your version of Calibre, and it seems your plugin needs it to function properly.
