    Yes, I meant Mediaportal V 1.0.2. Thanks for your answer.

    Hi I can't get internet lookup to work, I've just checked and getting cover art is also not working for myself.
    Could this issue from the OP have returned?

    Yes, there seems to be a problem.
    Used to work 2 weeks ago, when i last tagged an Album.

    Need to debug the issue.
    Hope to find some time tomorrow.

    Amazon Web Services changed their API last week.
    I haven't received any mail from them about the fact.

    Looks like i need to send an AssociateTag now to them.
    I've registered and they told me it may take up to 3 days to verify it and come back.

    Hope they will give us the id, otherwise i can't use Amazon as a source for Covers anymore.

    Amazon approved my request, so i was able to change the call to the API.

    Version 3.0.3, which i just have released, can retrieve cover art again.

    This is great, internet lookup / coverart is working again. :D

    While on the subject, does anyone else have the following issue:
    When I click on to retrieve data from the internet, I see a list of albums to select from, but occasionally selecting an album does nothing. (I've tried double click, and also selecting and pressing the button). Where if it did work you would see the next screen to select/order the tracks. This happens to me around 30% of the time.

    Just post a sample search string, i.e. an Artist / album, to search for, and i'll try reproducing it.

    Alkaline Trio - From Here to Infirmary

    I get one result to choose from, but nothing happens if I select it. Sometimes for albums there's a few to choose from, but this one is a bit of a pain as there is just the one.

    I select the UK amazon site from the settings menu btw, it's under cover lookup settings but I guess this affects track lookup too.

    Thanks
