From the 12.0.451 release thread:
Hi !
I found little bug :
My images (cover art) are "inside file" but these images aren't visible when MC plays theirs tracks.
These images are visible when theirs tracks are played by another player (iPod, Winamp, Microsoft Media Player ...)
Please fix this ... Thanks !

My reply:
It works for me.
What is the file format? What program was used for adding the images in the file tags? Does the Image File field show the value "Inside File"? Does it work if you create a copy of a file outside MC and import it as a new file? Can you provide a sample file?
Jean-Marc mailed me two sample files. On his PC only one of the files show cover art. I tested the files and both worked normally. The embedded image was visible in thumbnail views and in the Playing Now display.
Jean-Marc,
As a test, could you try the following?
Select a few of the problematic files and do
1. Library Tools > Update Tags (from library)
2. Library Tools > Update Library (from tags)
