How do I setup Music to auto update AND show me album art? (1 Viewer)

[Jakobkraft]

It seems the ONLY way to get MediaPortal to autoupdate my Music folder continuously is to keep it on the 'Shares' view. But the shares view does not show me any album art, although I have folder.jpgs in all my album folders. I don't have folder.jps in my Artists folders (no other program I've used ever required folder.jpgs directly inside the artist folder -- only the Album folder, naturally.

This is my Albums view: http://imageshack.us/f/441/mpalbumsview.jpg/

This is my Shares view: http://imageshack.us/f/36/mpsharesview.jpg/

Obviously I would prefer to keep it in Albums view, but the Music database ONLY updates in Shares. Why this is designed like this is beyond me -- there has to be a way to keep your music database up to date AND have your music arranged the way in the nicest way possible.
Any help would be greatly appreciated -- thanks in advance!!

Hi,

Sounds like you're on the wrong part of the forum : you're talking about MP1 as this part is for MP2.

I move the post in the correct section.

Cheers.
