Hi,

I have just installed the latest release of Media Portal. Much improved by the way especially since the last time I tried it.

However when I browse to "music" most of the little thumbs next to the songs have the same thumb. It's a picture of "Ray Lamontagne" and I don't know why. Or how to have images of the albums that the songs belong to appear next to each song. I'm using the Black Glass skin or XFactor. I have been able to determine that the thumbs seem to sit in the following folder ....

C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\thumbs\Music\Albums\

If I delete those images then the images next to each song disappear. I've also noticed that if I uncheck the "folder.jpg" then those images don't get generated. I've tried checking and unchecking a combination of "Create genre preview thumbs" and "Create artist preview thumbs" though I can't seem to get it to work the way I would like, where each song has a thumbnail that is the cover of that album, but I just can't get it to work.

I think it may because I don't understand what a folder.jpg is or where it exists ... Anyone with any info?
