Albumart is not shown for folders

Help and Support
1

All,

I am running volumio 3.378 on a Pi. The Pi has mounted my NAS over nfs3. On my NAS I have all my flac files in a folder structure which are available through nfs3 on my Pi (example /Media/flac/0-9/10CC/1974 Sheet Music/*.flac). Every folder contains a file cover.jpg (sometimes cover.png).

The thing which drives me nuts is that if I browse, in volumios webUI, the structure holding the flacs NO cover is shown for any folder (e.g. /Media/flac/0-9/10CC) although there is a cover.jpg.
I cleared the cache, renamed cover.jpg to folder.jpg and many other things El Googe found for me … however without success.

The flac files itself however do show the cover (the one inside the flac file??)

I must be doing something wrong, anybody any idea/trick/tip?

TIA,
Arjan

Do your album art settings look a bit like this?

Did you try the rescan, under Sources/My Music.

Volumio accepts cover or folder, jpg or png. First letter of folder or cover can be upper or lower case, so that shouldn’t be the cause.

Thanks for your feedback. I did set it this way. However I discovered what I did wrong. I browsed the tracks via media servers and not via the library. This solved it.

I knew I did something wrong.

Cheers,
Arjan
