Hi all,
Something that has been bugging me for the last several (sub)versions is that two of my music tracks would not display their embedded coverart as a thumbnail from within My Music.
I scratched my head no end, thinking is it a bug with MPTagThat (but the embedded thumbs displayed ok from Windows explorer), is it an issue with a specific view, etc.
But I believe I have now tracked it down
I have Mepo configured with the following:
Treat tracks in individual folders as an album
Use thumb creation for folder.jpg
Use thumb creation for *.png, *.jpg
Use thumb creation for cover art embedded in ID3 Tags
I believe the issue is that if the track (in my case MP3s) do not have an album defined/specified as a tag, then no thumbnail is displayed from embedded coverart for that track.
I have changed the views from share to album, still no joy - so it doesn't seem to be thumb related.
I performed the following steps:
Ensure track has no album defined as a tag
Clear Music Thumb cache
Rescan Music folder/db from MePo config
Go into My Music
Specific track has no thumbnail
Edit tag (using MPTagThat) and define an album
Clear Music Thumb
Rescan Music folder/DB
Go into My Music
Specific track has thumbnail from embedded coverart
Edit tag - remove album
Clear music thumb cache
Rescan folder
Go into My Music
Specific rack has no thumb
I have attached my Config log, and my Mepo log.
And before anyone jumps at me, I know I am running a custom SVN, but this has been happening since before 1.2.0.
I have not tried any other combinations (eg folder.jpg, etc) - only using embedded coverart.
Please let me know if its me or a bug!
Thanks,
J.
