Title: Artist Images when the Artist has accented characters don't display
Post by: blgentry on January 01, 2016, 02:24:27 pm

I have Artist images working well with almost my whole library.  I see the Artist image from the Cover Art/Artists directory for just about every artist.  The only ones that don't work are artists that have accented characters in their names.  For example:  Sigur Rós .  I've tried replacing the accented characters with their non-accented equivalents.  I've tried cutting and pasting the exact artist name from MC into the file name.  So far I can't get them to display.

Does anyone else see this behavior?  Or is there something else I should be doing?

I'm posting this in the MC21 for windows forum because I'm not sure how this works and whether it's a universal behavior, or whether this is Mac specific.  (I use MC21 for Mac).

Thanks,

Brian.

I'm still seeing this exact behavior.  I've tested by changing the Artist name and the Image file name to use non-accented characters, and the images then display.  But if the Artist Name has accented characters, I can't get an image to display.

Has anyone noticed this in their library?  If it's Mac specific, I guess I should start a new thread in the Mac forum.  I'd appreciate it if someone can confirm or deny this behavior in their library.

Thanks,

Brian.

I couldn't find an artist with an "ó", and have to go out, so no time to test with a fake. Works for me with Beyoncé though?

Sounds like it's Mac specific then.  Starting a new thread now...

Thanks Marko!
