Display composers' image in category view
« on: January 19, 2015, 01:52:07 am »
I have a collection of classical music in the library. To make the best use of MC's library and view functions, album information is maintened.
  • For every album, I edit fields of ARTIST and COMPOSER carefully (as well as CONDUCTOR, ORCHESTRA, GENRE, etc.).
  • And I also add composers to the ARTIST field.
  • By using 'get artist images from Last.fm' in the context menu, images of most artists are downloaded. And they're beautifully displayed in the Artist category view, including the composers' images.


My question is: whether there's a way to display composers' image in the Composer category view, using those images of artists.
BTW, I'm learning the Expression Language. But that's not an easy way. ?

Thanks for any suggestion and help.

No (artist images will only display where the category is formed exclusively by the Artist tag, not an expression), but features to allow this sort of thing have been requested several times over the years, for example:

Guys, Let's vote for this feature. Just keep posting in this thread, do not let it sink, and make them realize it.
