Cover Art

perryni

This is a bit weird but when I use the web ui to control my tunes I sometimes see "alternative" cover art for my music. An example would be nirvana nevermind, my flacs have the standard cover embedded as metadata but rune shows a random picture of the group? Whereas when I use mpod it has the correct cover art this happens for a few more albums.

Just to note I am not complaining, just an observation.

Hi perryni,

i had this also on an older installation.
This should be fixed since months see here.

So please tell us the version you are using.

RuneAudio searches at different places for the cover art.

- embedded (mp3 and flac)
- in the directory for folder.jpg, folder.png, cover.jpg and cover.png
- Last.FM

Hi Frank
I am using your rp2/rp3 image from March 2016

Hi,

where is your music located (SAMBA share)?
Are you connecting via "runeaudio" or ip address?

Hi Frank
I am using a server (WHS2011) but have set up an NFS share.

I have connected with ip and runeaudio.local

Just for further information, I'm seeing a similar bug in my setup.

In my case, I'm using a Raspberry Pi 3 for music in my car (battery powered), with the latest Raspberry Pi 3 Rune image. Connecting via Wifi (with my phone also serving as the wifi hotspot). All music is on a single 128gb USB flash drive, connected via IP address.

I'm also seeing the same thing on Pi3, but just certain albums. The files are on a USB3 hard drive. I think The Doobie Brothers albums show the group and not the album cover that's embedded.

As Perry said, not complaining - I would much rather attention was directed to clicks/pops with 24/96 files (hint).

Hi,

As Perry said, not complaining

No problem i am really interested in solving this.
My only problem is, that i do not encounter such things.

Not directly related to the TS's problem, but am I correct that the last.fm database does not support non-ANSI characters?
I have quite a lot of albums with non-ANSI (UTF8) characters in their titles, and they all show up with a generic band photo.
