Music 
I really appreciate the testing that users do to support the music library improvements I am (slowly) making. Over time there are quite a few of you (and I'm hopeful that there are more of you willing to do this), but of course you aren't all hovering over this forum waiting for me to post. If you watch a specific thread then you have the clutter of other posts mixed into it, and thread subscription becomes tedious.

By "big idea" is I make this thread and lock it so that only I can post when there is something new to test, no discussion just notification. Then users that are interested in testing could subscribe to this thread and receive an email notification whenever I post.

I have no idea if this will work, but we can at least try it.

Automatically fetching any type of music artwork PR13848

The facility to pick up additional types of art automatically from local files or scraper results (if the scraper returns that art). It makes fetching additional art, from local files or scraper results, configurable rather than hard coded.

Test builds available 20180503-7cceae43-PR13848 (win64, OSX also on mirrors, please ask for any others) - sadly master is broken, will post a new build as soon as one is ready.

Test build for win64: 20180503-8da3b6c7-LocalArtistArtFix (OSX build also on mirrors, please ask for any others). This is based on my repo as master is currently broken.
