Hi guys,

I am amazed by the complexity and functionalities of MP, but now encouter the problem that when I want to fill the movie and music database no cover arts are downloaded. There is no problem with movie descriptions (although it only works with IMDB, not the German one). How can I enable this feature? And what is the cover download destination directory?

Regards,

    For music, look out for the in-build plugins last.fm and audioscrobbler. You will need to set-up an last.fm account. Then MP will download cover and artist pics for every song you play in now-playing screen. Or download all pics for your collection in mp-configuration program in the config of audioscrobbler.
