Back cover
« on: February 16, 2015, 07:14:35 am »

Hi,
I try to find out how to use album back covers but I can't... Is there a way in MC to add back covers and view them during playback?
Thanks!

Yes.  The wiki has a topic on Cover Art.

Use Display View when you listen.  MC can automatically switch to it if you set the options under General > Behavior.

Right click on Display View for choices.

Where do you add a back cover image? The only image field I see in audio is Image File?

I was just thinking about that too...

I guess you need to select both audio and cover art files and then for example right click --> play
in order to start playing the audio and covers as a slideshow.

The idea is to see them in Display mode or Playing Now or in the Display Window or something like that. The slide show way is pretty much a kludge. Certainly not something my family is going to do.

I may be wrong, but I do not think there is a straightforward way to show front and back covers for an album.

a person could merge them together using paint.
