Title: Pink Cover Art
Post by: Mr ChriZ on December 08, 2005, 04:57:48 am

Certain Albums when retrieving cover art always come back
with a block image of pink!

I get this on about 1 in 20 albums i retrieve art for
totally random from 'The Classic Chillout Album' through to 'Trance Nation Four' ..

I'm curious as to where the pink block comes from and if anyone else gets it!

It was reported in the 11.0.313 thread (http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=29324.0):

I have MC retrieve the cover art from the internet for Pink Floyd - Ummagumma and it seems to find it just fine.  However, when I try to see the image using the AW I don't see anything and when I hover over the track in the Library I get a pink square where the cover art should be...

This has happened to me also:

The actual image file is a 1x1 pixel empty jpg, but the thumbnail shown is a pink square for some reason.

Are you guys saying this is not fixed in 11.1? It must be a difficult thing to fix, over three months already...

haha yah i got pink squares everywhere too.  what i think would be cool is if the mc servers supported an album uploading database, so we could all lend album cover art support.  of course this is prolly harder than it sounds, but still.... cool idea.
