Every CD got it's folder with the appropriate folder.jpg. While until MediaPortal 0.2.1 everything worked fine, since I'm using MediaPortal 0.2.2 it does no more. As far as I understand it, if I scan my music shares (update db) using configuration an image cache is build up under: Thumbs\Music\Albums\ with two versions (small and large of each folder.jpg) for each CD. Now the naming of these files is probably not ideal: Different subfolders can contain folders with the same names or more precise the first files of 2 folders in different subfolders contain the same artist and album name. Eg. I've a folder "Singles" and a folder "Rock&Pop". Both contain a subfolder/an album "Lenny Kravitz - Are You Gonna Go My Way". The CD single got the same name as the CD. If I play the single, the cover art of the Album is getting displayed instead of the cover of the single. Folder view: [IMG]http://img265.imageshack.us/img265/2088/folderview1ou.jpg[/IMG] Now playing: [IMG]http://img265.imageshack.us/img265/5387/nowplaying0xf.jpg[/IMG] Another strange problem that I'm having, is that with double albums where the album names/folder names got a "CD1" "CD2" at the end, the cover art does not get displayed. For double CD albums I use 2 folders. The folder names are eg. the following: Bobo Stenson Trio - Serenity CD1 Bobo Stenson Trio - Serenity CD2 The album names are: Serenity CD1 Serenity CD2 Both folders contain a folder.jpg – which is identical. The coverart simply does not get displayed in now playing for most of these CDs. [/QUOTE]
