Album Cover Art Does not appear
dsdudzik:
I just upgraded from MC25 to 27 and most of my cover art disappeared. It's ridiculous that I have to select a thousand albums and get the cover art back - just saying!
JimH:
Restore a backup.

It disappeared becasue you do not have the coverart images stored inside your actual file tags. I don't run on a Mac but on PC the MC temporary settings are in %AppData% /Roaming /J River /Media Center 25 /CoverArt /Albums. Someone else can tell you where the Mac equivalent settings file is at in ~Library\Preferences\* somewhere.
I have a File view set up to show the "Image File " field to make sure they are always "Inside File" which means they are in the tags and will move with versions. Or they can be "Folder.JPG" which means the jpg is in the folder together with the tracks and will move with the file folders. I bet if you look at you library you have many sitting in the folder above. It's up to you to manage them by updating your file tags to copy with a new image from MC 25 folder above or saving them from internet again. If you leave them in the AppData folder of course they will not move with the version as the next MC (27 in your case) is standalone and has it's own app data folder for temporary settings.

Hope this is related enough to the thread, but in MC 27 with Mac, I don't see an option to save cover art inside file in the Options>General>Importing & Tagging section. Is this not an option for Mac and/or ALAC?

The option is under File Location->Cover Art
