Vivie 0 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I've been using Emby for my movies successfully for a while and now I'm trying to expand to my music. My problem is I can't get Emby to display any image, either on adding an album or on updating metadata manually. I've also try to identify manually the album or to manually change the image (the search returns nothing). Nothing seems to work, even though the MusicBrainz link in the album description is good and includes an image. Here is my log : https://paste2.org/mLH7mkHW Hope you can help me !

Luke 37009 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Hi there, this should be improved with the next release of the server, thanks ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vivie 0 Posted January 10, 2019 Author Share Posted January 10, 2019 So there's actually nothing I can do (settings or else...) on my side at the moment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37009 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Not at the moment. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vivie 0 Posted June 24, 2019 Author Share Posted June 24, 2019 There has been several releases of the server since my first question, and yet I still can't display album arts. Any idea about what I should change for it to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37009 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Hi, in your above example, I notice the album has a music brainz id attached to it. Have you checked the following websites to see if images are available based on that musicbrainz album id? fanart.tv audiodb This is where we download images from. We also have a last.fm plugin in the plugin catalog which can add an additional source. Please let us know if this helps. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vivie 0 Posted June 24, 2019 Author Share Posted June 24, 2019 Yes, for this one, there is an image on audiodb (and also several images on musicbrainz). So I checked my parameters, and Audiodb wasn't selected. I corrected that, and it has worked for this one and a few others (but for this to work, I had to update metadata on each album manually and select the "change images" option) But I still have some albums that are not working properly... For these, the only solution I found is to download the cover to the album folder myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you make changes to metadata provider settings, they apply for new media scanned going forward. For existing albums you could have either used the manual image editor like you did, or done a manual metadata refresh. But I still have some albums that are not working properly Can you please go over an example? thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vivie 0 Posted June 24, 2019 Author Share Posted June 24, 2019 For instance, this album is working : https://musicbrainz.org/release/390bcfc7-6e01-4c18-99e5-a44792196504 And this album is not : https://musicbrainz.org/release/0f769e61-f686-446c-87bf-6b9ec05f8adb Though none of them has an audiodb ID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37009 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 I just did a search on both fanart.tv and audiodb and neither site has an image for that album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vivie 0 Posted June 25, 2019 Author Share Posted June 25, 2019 But I didn't find an image for the first link either, and yet it's working for this one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14903 Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 But I didn't find an image for the first link either, and yet it's working for this one... Perhaps one of the songs has an album image embedded in it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vivie 0 Posted June 25, 2019 Author Share Posted June 25, 2019 No, because it wasn't working before I checked the AudioDb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
