Cover not showing when playing music
« on: September 19, 2018, 01:12:02 am »

When I launch an album from Windows context menu (Media Center -> Play), most often it doesn't show the cover art.
For instance, things appear as on the pic.
Is there a setting I can change so that, by default, cover art is shown in such a case?

Have the files you are playing in this way been imported into MC's library? When I tried this the cover art shows as normal.

The case I am concerned with is when the music isn't already imported into MC's library.
I had the impression that, previously, it showed the cover art systematically.
But perhaps because I changed a setting I don't remember, this is no longer the case.

When you right-click the black area, does the menu come up?
If yes, what visualization mode is ticked? Is it "Cover Art"? Try ticking that if not, or try ticking something else just for testing?

When I do that, nothing automatically happens.
The Cover Art is not ticked.
I have to tick it manually to get the cover art to show.
Previously, I had the impression it was automatically shown.
