Bugzilla – Bug 17356
Artwork is not appearing for music files with VBR
Last modified: 2011-07-29 14:49:47 UTC
I have upgraded to squeezeboxserver 7.6.0. It sounds strange but al my cover art is showing except for albums in WMAPRO lossless or MP3 with VBR. All the artwork was correct and showing when I was using SBS7.5.3. All the artwork is correctly shown in windowsmediaplayer. For every album there is Folder.jpg on same location as the music files. Also the album art is embedded in every music file. I already cleared the album-art cache and cleared and rescanned my music library. For every missing cover there is an entry in the scanner.log like this: " (677) Handling new track file:////HOMESERVER/Muziek/Amanda%20Marshall/Amanda%20Marshall/01%20Let%20It%20Rain.wma [11-07-27 23:28:53.3204] Slim::Music::Artwork::findStandaloneArtwork (146) Using 0 [11-07-27 23:28:53.3244] Slim::Utils::Scanner::Local::new"
I have the same issue as in 16664. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 16664 ***
Most likely this has nothing to do with VBR, but with how the artwork is stored. There was a bug which caused WMP's Folder.jpg not to be found. This issue should be fixed in the latest nightly build. Please give it a try: http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.6
I tried SqueezeboxServer-7.6.1-32935. Stil no album art for wma pro-files. In every directory for every album there is an hidden/system file folder.jpg. Every wma file also has album art embedded (using MP3TAG v2.49) It looks like SBS still doesn't read the folder.jpg file. Also the embedded covers are not used, but this already reported in bug 16664. MP3 files do have album art.
