Problems with album cover art (1 Viewer)

[megahorst]

Hello!
Within my music library I have some albums with different covers in the id3-tag.
Track one has another cover than track two and so on ...
The Albums are vocal ones for my children. One Album for example is called "Astrid Lindgren" and contains tracks with different stories of her. They have cover arts with Pippi Longstocking or Madita or ...
MePo shows only the first of the covers for all tracks.
Is this a bug or a feature?

Does anyone has an idea about this issue?
Should I open a bug report?

Could you post a screenshot please?
Every track should be able to show its own cover. (MP Config -> Music -> Music Database -> tick "coverart embedded in ID3-Tags")

There can only be one artwork for a combination of artist and album. If these have the same artist and album then it will use one but if artwork for all.

There is a mantis outstanding to improve the way thumbs are handled

Thanks for this explanation.
Is there a workaround to get the behavior I would like to have?
e.g. to leave album artist as it is and give different artists to the different tracks?

@Holzi:
Do you still need the screenshoots?

Yes that should work
