Stupid question but should MP seek album covers from internet database like it does for movies or do I have to add there cover jpg manually and rename it connectly.

    You can do it just the same way as with movies: Press F3.
    For remote i don´t know the button. It is in the context menu, too.
    But mp3 tags (especially album) has to be filled to work.

    (I´ve tagged my mp3 now also with a couple of external programs, as I like to have the image in the tags.)

    @Spragelknas,
    I noticed that you also uploaded album cover art downloader to the MePo Plugins section, but the link there, as well as the one above, both retrurn "server or DNS not found". What gives? Where can I find this plugin now?
    TIA, rsbrux

    Good to hear you got it working.(y) I have attached a screenshot of my Power Scheduler settings and, yes my TV does stay off when a scheduled recording starts.
