Title: Displaying Artist thumbnails
Post by: DickyH on August 02, 2017, 08:08:38 am

Is there a way to display the Artist thumbnail rather than stacked album covers for each artist in the Artist view (audio only)?
I have all my artists thumbnails in a single folder.

Thanks

Yes.  You probably need to copy them to the Artists folder under your centrally configured Cover Art folder.  See details here:

Note that you can automatically populate your artists images using the "get artist image from lastfm" feature.

Many thanks. I've created an 'Artists' folder in my main music area and pointed the Tools->Options->File Location->Cover Art to it and it works fine. I must have done this before and forgotten what I did.
I've upgraded to V23 so that might have reset the setting.
I'm impressed by the quick response  :)

Note that cover art for all of your albums may be copied to this folder depending on how you have your cover art settings set up. 

You might want to use an alternate path if that might "contaminate" your main music directory.
