One of the great features of theater mode is the background images that are loaded while music is playing.  However, where are these files coming from?  I know it's from the internet, but where exactly?  The reason I ask is because there have been times that I have played an album, and the images that are shown in the background are completely irrelevant to the album.  I didn't mind that until last night when I was playing random Disney albums.  IF the images come from something like Google Image, just typing Disney pulls up a lot of pornographic images.  I would only be playing Disney songs when kids are around.  I don't want to play that music and have some naked version of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs pop up, you know.  lol  So I'd just like to know where the images come from.  Thank you.

Google Images is one source, but we use the safesearch option there.  Are you saying that you get obscene images if you use a browser to search for Disney at Google Images?  I tried it just now and don't see a problem.

No, I'm not saying that I DID receive a pornographic image with MC.
Using Google Image, I have received some pornographic results with some searches in the past.  However, I can't recall if SafeSearch was on or off.

I've played music with MC and had different results with the background images
 - I've played Joss Stone.  Had images of Joss Stone appear.
 - I've played Aerosmith.  Had images of random objects.

With that said, it seemed to me that the images were obtained by just a search of the artist name.  So I was a bit worried about playing any music that had Disney (or any animated character) in the filename or tags.  When using Google Images, some searches for animated characters come up naked and such.  So I just wanted to make sure how MC operates before playing those types of music albums.  I just didn't want to have Disney songs playing and have something inappropriate show up with kids around.

But now I know how MC obtains images since you told me.  So I think I will be ok playing those albums now.  Thank you.
