Artist Images
« on: July 07, 2020, 11:45:12 am »

Currently using latest release (.98).  Anyone having a problem displaying artist images in Playing Now display arera?  Worked when I upgraded to v26, and not certain when it stopped (and stopped on two different installs on different PC's).

Can any one confirm or deny?

Thanks,

Larry

Thanks.    Somewhere in the blur of pre-pandemic memory, I do remember seeing a place where sites to get images could be added/deleted, which am certain I did not change, but don't recall seeing any other settings for this.  I do understand with a right click you need to click on the drop down item "artist images" which results in a check mark in front of that text.  Images do work in Theater View, but not (on two PC's) in Playing now .  Any settings to look at?

Thanks

Same issue here, even with the latest 26.0.103 build.

Anyone with knowledge of how artist images works?  Works in Theater View, but not in Playing Now in Standard view.  Worked when the release was announced, but somewhere along the line, stopped for me...several months ago, on both my PC's.

Anywhere to look for a setting?

Thanks!

Mine are still working and I use Standard View.

Have you tried a different skin?  Also, check to make sure the image files are still there.  If they are not in the tag, it may have something to do with the folder.jpg or similar file in the files folder.  To check, just highlight a file and select tag and scroll down to where the image is.  I keep all of mine in the file itself.

Start there. If there is no image in the tag, that's where your problem begins.

Interesting.

I tried a different skin.  No Change.  I generally use Marko's Black & Blue, but tried one of the default v26 skins as well.

I have for quite a while used to option to save the cover art in the file, and seem to forever be deleting folder.jpg and other cover art files.  Would not have thought cover art was related to the artist images setting.  To be clear, one static album cover does display, but never changes to  random internet images for the artist.

I looked at the tags and in the "image File" field.  It is marked "inside file" and the follow two fields (img height and width) have varying sizes depending on the file.

In my own feeble attempts at trying to figure this out, I tried turning off firewalls in the router and windows. Since this is happening on two PC's in the house, I thought it might be something common to them both. I didn't thing that was the issue, as it wasn't.

Appreciate the info.

I mistook you were talking about cover art.  The rotating images I've only used in Theater view.

Is this what you're talking about?

Yes.  If you select Artist Images in the drop down menu on a right mouse click, artist images replace the album cover art, like Playing Now in Theater View.  This did work, but I can no longer get to work. Hasn't work for me for a while.  I'm current on version.  It stopped quite a while ago.  Certainly two or three (minor) versions ago, although I am not suggesting it started with a software update.  I do not know what the cause is, and since others don't seem to have the issue (although one user has confirmed the issue) I at least think it's a setting....but can't find it.

Thanks

Will this be fixed with a JRiver 26 release?
