Does "Get images from the Internet" work at all?
« on: November 06, 2002, 04:15:42 am »

Just for fun I wanted to download coverart for a few of my albums, and I tried the Get button in the properties window. I tried with 4-5 very common albums (one of them being Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms), but didn't get a single hit, even with the loose search. Where does this function look, and has anybody managed to get covers for not so common CD's?  8)

The get cover art function stopped working a couple builds ago. The bug has been reported, but I think everyone's pretty busy with MJ 9.

It has been updated in version 9, and seems to work well.  We may not be able to do anything for 8 anymore.

It works well in V9 - we not be able to do anything in V8 anymore.

I'm already trying V9 on my laptop - but i dont trust it yet on my main music PC.

This used to work okay - why cant you just put it back to how it was or is V8 now dead and buried?

It's a long story.  We'll see what we can do.
