plugins or sources to automatically download hi-res cover art
« on: November 28, 2020, 08:47:09 am »

Hello,

JRiver can automatically fetch album artwork. Sometimes the resolution is not high enough. Is there a way (add-on, plugin or link to a certain site) to make JRiver do a better job at automatically finding artwork with a resolution needed?

When I'm dissatisfied with the images returned from the various services, I do a google advanced image search. It allows you search for a square image of a particular minimum resolution.  Sometimes the music publisher's website has a high resolution image for promotional purposes.

Try Album Art Downloader
It's the best you can get for high quality album art.
