Music NowPlaying albumart

Hi,

I am quite new to MP, everything works quite perfectly. there is only one thing bugging me.
In nowPlaying view we can see the albumart, the problem is that it is rotating between High quality image and low quality image. I dont know if it is normal, but if so is there a way to change it so that it only show High quality?

One other thing is is there a way to add the artist art? is there a control id for the artist art? i couldnt find a page giving all the available ids

Thanks

As far as I know (someone correct me if I am wrong), it should sitch between cover & artist.... At least that seemed to be my impression.

Yeah you are right, that s what happening but is there a way to only show album art and to show artist art somewhere else in the view?

I found that annoying too, so I disabled the two checks under "Use exsisting album art to:" in Configuration->Music->Music Database.
As for your question - I'll see if I can do anything.

I've tried, but I can't seem to get it to work - sorry.

Damn!
ONe question however if i want to tweak a few things where can i find the possible ids like the one for albumart?

Album art is 112 in nowplaying - it actually switches between artist and coverart if enabled 0 that's why it has no texture.

<control>
<type>image</type>
<description>album art image</description>
<id>112</id>
<posX>320</posX>
<posY>150</posY>
<width>280</width>
<height>280</height>
<texture>-</texture>
</control>

But what does it show if enabled 1 ?
Is there a place where i can see all the ids like 112?
