Bugzilla – Bug 17355
Some cover art not appearing when using WMA lossless format
Last modified: 2011-08-06 10:52:05 UTC
I upgraded to 7.6.0, and found approximately 20% of my album covers were not showing up in the server web interfaces. All of the cover art appeared properly before this time. I am running WHS and embed the artwork into each wma lossless track using Mp3tag ID3v2.3 UFT-16. As an example, I have two albums, one "Volume One" and the other "Volume Two". I am sure I processed both of these albums with the same workflow. Volume One artwork shows up, and Volume Two does not. I will attach one track from each album in hopes you can duplicate and determine the root cause.
Okay, I tried two times to upload my testcase. Since the two tracks total 50MB, it appears the system won't allow me to upload. I have posted the testcase at the following public location: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5213273/Shared/Test%20Squeeze.zip
Did the scan finish successfully? Is this reproducible with those two files? Please set logging level for scan.* options to debug (Settings/Advanced/Logging) and re-run a scan with the latest nightly build. Then upload the full scanner.log file. Thanks!
Created attachment 7356 [details] Scanner logfile with debug options turned on.
I installed v7.6.1-r32929 and ran a scan with the clear+rescan settings and debug logging options turned on. Same results for the two files referenced. Volume 1 artwork appears, Volume 2 album artwork is missing. Please let me know if you can reproduce on your end.
As these are lossless WMA I assume you've been using WMP to rip them. I just fixed an issue where SBS would not find WMP downloaded artwork. This should be fixed in the 7.6.1/r32932 or later build. Could you please give it a try? http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.6
I am using Easy CD-DA Extractor to rip my WMA files, not WMP. And now that I think about it, I may have embedded the artwork using that program as well (instead of Mp3tag). I downloaded 7.6.1/r32935, and the results are the same (artwork shows up for Volume1, missing on Volume2). Could you please download my files and let me know if you can reproduce my results on your end?

Is this a dupe of bug 16664?

from bug 17376: 7.6.1 r32935 was supposed to resolve the lack of artwork showing for WMA files however the problem still remains for many albums. The problem seems to occur (and is repeatable) as follows : 1. Artwork is embedded and no folder.jpg exists - no album art shown. 2. Artwork is embedded and folder.jpg exists - no album art shown. 3. Artwork is not embedded and folder.jpg exists - album art is shown. 4. Artwork is not embedded and no folder.jpg exists - no album art shown (as expected). So as you can see the inclusion of album art in a wma file causes SB Server not to display the artwork irrespevtive of whether an artwork file is present.

Yeah, here is the technical issue: the first file has the WM/Picture tag in the Extended Content Description block, while the second one has it in the Header Extension/Metadata Library block. The image offset calculation is buggy for the second case.
== Auto-comment from SVN commit #869 to the opensource repo by agrundman == == http://svn.slimdevices.com/opensource?view=revision&revision=869 == Fixed bug 17355, fixed WM/Picture offset calculation when artwork is stored in the Header Extension/Metadata Library block
Please note this won't be part of a build until I look at some other Audio::Scan bugs and check in new binaries.
Please test with 7.6.1 build 32962 or later.
Downloaded and installed 7.6.1 build 32962 and all my artwork is back again. Thanks for the fix!
Fixed for me too.
Thanks for the fix!
