Missing Cover Art

(1/3) > >>

dees_74:
Just installed 16.026 and I have no Cover Art? :'(

Not sure what went wrong

leezer3:
It'll be rebuilding the thumbnails database :)
Leave it for a while and they'll rebuild. Alternatively, you can copy in the MC15 thumnails DB, although this isn't a reccommended or supported option.

It may take a while to fill in.

Or your cover art directory may not be correct.  Tools/Options/File Locations.

You can backup your library from MC15 and restore in MC16 (with settings if you choose).

Alex B:
MC16 changes the set cover art location when it imports the MC15 settings and the old location is the default, i.e. ...[user]\[application data path]\J River\Media Center 15\Cover Art . The new location is ...[user]\[application data path]\J River\Media Center 16\Cover Art . However the MC16 installer does not change the paths in the "Image File" library field values and it does not move or copy the existing cover art files. The MC15 uninstaller may delete the cover art files because they will remain in the old location.

Here is a suggestion to JRiver:

Change the default path to
...[user]\[application data path]\J River\Common\Cover Art
so that it will be the same in all future MC versions.

Perhaps even an "all users" path could be possible, e.g.:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\J River\Cover Art
(this is from XP, it would be a bit different in Vista or Windows 7)

An "all users" location would make the same cover art files available to all Windows users.

dees_74:
Would the cover art directory apply if the cover art is also stored in the tag?  A large portion of my cover art in MC 15 doesn't reside in the cover art directory that is specified, and is (I think) only in the tag.  All the cover art appears in MC 15.  ?
