[QUOTE="dragonfly, post: 201955, member: 17600"] Doing a bit more testing, I've found out some interesting stuff. First, I need to point out that my directory structure is as follows: HDD:\Archive\Mp3\Albums\A-Z\Artist - Album (Year)\Artist - Song.mp3 Now, when I'm browsing an album directory in MP, watching the list of files, I right-click one file and press "Find cover art". The search box opens up, gives the result and I press the appropriate cover art. Now, that cover art will show up for each of the files. HOWEVER: When I press the [..] button once and get to the list of albums, the newly downloaded cover art will not show up for the album. No matter what I do, I can never get MP to display the cover art if I've downloaded it from within it's album directory OR if I've downloaded it using the Audioscrobbler plugin. Now, I *CAN* get the album art to display correctly, *IF* I right-click the ALBUM directory instead of the files within it. That is, if I'm browsing in "HDD:\Archive\Mp3\Albums\C\" for instance, and right click on an album and download its cover art, it won't display at first. But then, I left-click to enter that album and go back again. Now it shows up as it should! This is the only way I've found, except using an already existing folder.jpg which works *sometimes* but not always, to get the album art to display properly. Note that this persists from Shares view to Artists view. If I've downloaded cover art by right-clicking a song within the album, the album art won't display in Artists view. If I've downloaded it by right-clicking an album in the top directory of albums ("HDD:\Archive\Mp3\Albums\A-Z\"), it will display properly. Furthermore, I've noticed that if a folder already has a folder.jpg - even if it's loaded or not - or if it has album art, then the "Find cover art" option will do nothing at all. I'll be happy to test this further, and believe me, if I was any good at programming I'd have downloaded the sources and tried to help out with this long ago.
