    If MP does not find an cover in the MP3 Tag and folder which cover is now displayed?
    I use Titan Skin and i have a very strange cover on all songs with no cover (folder.jpg or mp3 tag).

    How can i change this "default" cover?

    I see always this cover attached. It makes me crazy :)
    If an MP3 has no cover in MP3 Tag and no "folder.jpg" i see this strange album cover ....

    I use the Titan Skin and have also tried the "Default Wide". Same problem.
    So it is no theme problem.

    Attached the Titan Skin with the cover and the "Default Wide".

    Any help please :)

    Interesting choice of Album Cover that MePo is giving you.

    I can't check this out at the moment, but my thoughts are

    1) Where there is no data, the last valid album art is used (I've noted something similar in Frames skin and MovingPictures [need to post in correct forum] where when there is no Director data in DB, the last movie listed which has a Director entry in DB is used - could be similar issue in Titan specific to Album art.

    2) It's not possible all your MP3 have been tagged with this album art by any chance - don't know what you use to manage tags, but stranger stuff happens:)

    Cheers - JCMP

    1)
    But Titan and the "Default Wide" theme shows me this cover ?!?
    I have already searched the theme xml files, but i didn't find any "default" cover entry.
    And if i search for the artist "Haudegen" i didn't find any artist in my database or file system.
    On the filesystem i've checked all "folder.jpg" and i did not find this cover.

    2)
    Yes this is of course possible, but i have already checked this and no cover in ID3 tag.
    I use "MP3 Tag" for this.

    Tried 'Warhorse' - I looked up the band and the translation:)

    You also need to look and see if the image appears in thums/Music section - in Folder or Album directories.

    You can also try an clean your cache.

    It must be somewhere on your system or it's an early Easter Egg from one of the Titan devs:ROFLMAO:
