Album Artwork
Album Artwork
Currently on version 1.3.101.0, running on RPI3 Edge. Having problems displaying album artwork on the web console, despite several watch folder refreshes. What formats are supported (currently using jpeg and PNG)? What rules should be observed for the artwork to be recognised? Cheers. Ken

Re: Album Artwork
Rules are:
1. Try to extract the artwork from the first track in a group (whether that's an album or an artist)
2. If can't find, then look for folder.jpg in the folder the track lives in
3. If can't find, then look for folder.png in the folder the track lives in
There is a bug in the current version of My Media where if you update the artwork (or add a folder.jpg/png file) after indexing, there's no way to refresh My Media's view of this, however we're testing a fix for this at the moment and it should be resolved by the end of the week.

Re: Album Artwork
Tx for the prompt reply. I have tried both the folder jpg and PNG options without success. A workaround for me is to delete the folder, refresh, update the image in the album art tag and copy the updated tracks back again into the watch folder, followed by a refresh. I will await the fix.
