Title: Grabbing Cover Art Question
Post by: packyb on June 16, 2003, 09:31:14 pm

I am trying to get cover art in MC9. I have selected "Grab Cover Art From Internet" option during the rip, but am still missing half of my collection. Is there a way to manually assign cover art from the internet? I tried to select my whole collection and right click and have MC9 search for missing cover art, and it worked for some but still missing a lot.

I suspect that the reason that it didn't download the art in the first place is a naming issue. I am not talking about obscure albums - for example none of my Bob Marley cds have associated cover art.

Thanks.

check out walmart's online music store 1st, if they have your album, there's a 99% chance they'll have a 500 x 500 pixel cover image. If they don't have it, check out amazon's music store, if they have it, there's an 80% chance they'll have a 300 x 300 pixel cover image. If neither of them have what you need, google it or try a searching from ...

King Sparta's  Chart and Lyrics finder plugin will find cover art for you too.

I use Amazon.com.  Their "larger image" is usually 300 x 300.
