I really want to be able to see individual people's portrait. (Artists/Actors/Directors/Composers)

It feels like JRiver is so close to having this.
What can we do about this?

Thanks

Having same issues after updating last night to 25.0.95. I'm trying to change/update existing artist images (thru both internet searches and thru Last.FM) and on some of them (about 20%), after replacing the EXISTING files (new images, same filenames) that were working fine, the artist image now will not show up, only the fanned stack of albums for that artist.

I understand the issue with filenames matching between MC and the Artist art folder, but I am re-saving new images under existing filenames that JR was recognizing yesterday.

What changed?

I've stripped tags and file properties from both audio and image files, nothing works.   

Hoss:
FWIW, the guy above was/is correct. It has something to do with embedded images in audio files. Doesn't seem to matter which format. Some of the images cannot be deleted. Well, if they can be, I haven't found a "free" tag editor that will erase the embedded images I have on about 300 various audio file types (admittedly, most of these ~300 are from the torrent/napster days, so... ). Some editors will remove some image types, other editors will erase other types, but some of these images are either hard embedded or in some odd format and won't come off... and those files somehow mess with the Artist Images in MC.




I determined this by deleting an old Kenny Rogers album that would not conform due to embedded images that could not be erased, purchased the same album, new and in same format. Imported it and it works as it should.
