I've not had much luck with the music artwork on FLAC files that are ripped directly by XBMC, or by files that are ripped by Mediamokey
on a Windows PC. Only about 20 to 25% of albums get cover art. Using universal album scraper currently. Re scanning the library seems
to do no good. I can use Mediamonkey (or any of several apps for that matter) to manually download artwork, and then that will display in XBMC
just fine. Very time consuming though.
Tried many things, including those mentioned in this post.
I ran across postings about an XMBC app called "Artwork Downloader" but it's apparently only for video files. If there is a similar
add on for music, I have not found it. Or even a linux script to do this in the backgound?
Now running Rasbmc on a Raspberry Pi, I was originally using Openelec, and had the exact same problem. So it doesn't seem
specific to one or the other distro.
Any thoughts on this would be much appreciated.
