My previous installation was Eden. I just installed RC1 and when I went to the music section, it seemed the library got transferred. But now most of the Album art is gone and I don't see any Artis images either.
Rescanning the library is not doing anything, or querying for album information or artist information is not doing anything either.
Anybody else have this problem?

You were prompted that a rescan was needed, right? And you told it to do so I presume?
After that, any local art will be there.
Remote art may not - that will be downloaded in the background as you browse stuff.

If the only art you have is art that was downloaded, then my guess is the original URLs no longer exist.

You'll need to refresh those artists.

I don't understand how I can refresh the artists and albums. Unless, I go to each one individually to refresh them. That is not a good solution since I have thousands of albums and hundreds of artists.
Losing the artwork during the upgrade in my mind is still a bug. The artwork existed before the upgrade and was lost after. I don't think the URL of where the artwork was downloaded from should be relevant, since it is local now.

I am now on RC2, still no luck.
@Nigel: unless you have a back up of your Eden 'work' folder, you will probably have to redo all the artwork!
