Backdrop image size

The Movie Database Support

I was wondering why i couldn't get anymore the backdrop image, from TMDB. It seems that the standard HD mode (1920x1080) is not supported anymore and that the maximum width allowed is now w1280 rather than w1920.

Do you plan to restore the full HD mode, or is it gone for ever ?

Thank you again for your great API.

It's not an official size. Therefore, it can be discontinued at any time.

Also, can we have the table in the docs too, please?

In the documents you can get the list of official sizes supported for images.
