I started to use Cover Art 3 today in manual mode to try to find some cover art for my files. Weird things are happening in CA3. The very first image I ever 'Download & Apply'ed shows up as 'Current Art' for all files and every time I change to a new file by pressing the 'next' button there is a long delay while it says 'uploading cover art'.
In a session, if I actually 'Download & Apply' an image to a file, that image starts to show up as 'current art' for all remaining files. Once I exit and come back, it goes back to showing that first image ever done as the 'current art' again.
In some cases, it is assigning this incorrect image to the file without me telling it to apply - but not happening 100%. Basically now I have at least a few files (out of thousands) with the wrong artwork and no way to easily find which ones this has happened to.

You can change the settings on the settings page, it is fully configurable you can turn it on or off, local art or remote art.

there is a help file on the first screen if you need help

I've looked at the help file, and best I can tell in manual mode I should have to do SOMETHING to permanetly attach an image to the file. This is not what is happening.
I put some files into the playing now list.
I go to Services > Cover Art Finder 3 and click on the Main Tab
In Manual mode, I click Next until I find a file that has matching art that I want to apply, select the image then click DownLoad & Apply. So far so good.
From this point on, every time I click 'Next' that same image gets applied to every file in the library that does not already have artwork without me clicking on anything to tell it to.

I Just Tested It

It Does Not Apply That To The Next Song If The Next Song Is From

If the Image Is Wrong On The Server, Simply Delete It And Select The Correct One.
At Any Rate All You need To Do Is Uncheck The Option, That Will Take It Out Of Semi Manual Mode And Put It In Full Manual Mode.
