Hello,

I saw, that some covers are displayed wrong. E.g.: i got a track from "Peter Fox - Alles Neu" and MP shows the cover from "Cingy" or a German "artist" that I hate very much ("Kollegah").

How can I remove some covers, or how can I force MP to rescan all tracks (not only albums) and download a artist or track cover and an album cover?

I have no problems with album covers. I did download them manually via the MP (right clicks -> search cover). But covers for tracks aren't display or even wrong.

ID3-Tags are all up2date. (It took a long time )...

In short, what I want to achieve is:

• Removing old / wrong TRACK covers
• Force MP to download TRACK covers
• Let MP display them

Thank you very much!

if you have all tags up2date with covers included, then the easiest way is to clean the Thumbs\Music folder and rescan the shares, which will update the database and extract the covers

 

[King-S]

Thanks. Sounds good.

Btw: Do you know a programm which scans my MP3s, loads the correct covers and save it in the ID3-Tag automatically?

Thanks

Hi,

I got an "error" / Bug... I deleted all files in the four Music-Thumbs folders. But the folders for some tracks (the wrong ones) and some folder thumbs were displayed again. MP generates the same Thumbs new and will display them again. Should I completly delete the Music DB-File?

It's more likely that you have a wrong folder.jpg somewhere then...

 

[King-S]

Exactly. That was the mistake

But... One thing...: I got many folders (named 1, 2, 3 ... n) with each 100 Tracks per folder. How can I download coverarts for each track or at least artist in that folder?

Thanks!

Artist: the last.fm grabber of the audioscrobbler plugin
Tracks: your only persistent option would be to save the coverart into the ID3 tag of the single files then.
