Add album art?
« on: January 06, 2014, 12:47:12 pm »

Hi,
I just upgraded to Media Center 19 on my MacBook Pro, and now, when I select an album with no album art and press "Images", it brings me to the normal page, but doesn't let me download and add the image like before. Also, when I press backspace, it exits the browser. Is this working yet with MC19?

Thanks,
-Chris

So you select an album with no album art and then you choose:

Cover Art-> Get from Internet

And you don't see any images, or you see images but you cannot "Save Cover Art"?

If you are choosing:

Link-> Images

It wont let you copy or download the images?

I always use the former approach to add cover art for my music albums that lack cover art.

I tried the Cover Art - Get From Internet thing as well, and that gave no results on all of my albums with no art. Link - Images doesn't work either, pressing backspace just closes out and doesn't let me download stuff.

You may have a firewall or antivirus program blocking access.

Same Issue.  Internet does not find any images ... No firewall

Under Artists files when I click on a file without album cover art I do not see a means to go from Cover Art > Get from Internet. Where exactly do I find these links? Also, just clicking on the images link doesn't so anything for me.

Select the tracks, and right-click.  You'll see Cover Art > Get From Internet.

Edit: But I see that it is not working on the Mac.  An album that returns cover art on Windows is returning nothing on the Mac.

It does work on the Mac version, i.e.,
 

Select an album with no cover art.

Right click and choose either Get from Internet, or or Cover Art-> Get from Internet.

Cover art returned.

I don't dispute your findings from above on what happened on PC versus Mac version, that is quite odd.

Using WireShark, I see that YADB is being reached, and is replying with valid cover art, so this isn't a failure at the network level:
