Luke 37132 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 They absolutely do. If your artists have background images assigned, they will be displayed on these screens. Do your artists have these images? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KumarjitDey 97 Posted January 29, 2019 Author Share Posted January 29, 2019 The Artists do have background images assigned. Its just when I enter an album the art simply vanishes! Also, note that artist bio is not being displayed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KumarjitDey 97 Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 (edited) Please note that I am facing the same problem in the web client, i.e., artist image is not appearing in the background.

Happy2Play 8318 Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 @@Luke The issue is where the backdrops reside. Not looking in new Artist location \library\xx\xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. I just added new artist and album "\akon\freedom" Artist and Album are recognized, but since images are no longer saved in Artist level folder the album has no backdrops. Putting images in artist folder provides backdrop for albums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy2Play 8318 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Right, that is why we are seeing mixed results. As I have images still in existing artist folders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KumarjitDey 97 Posted January 31, 2019 Author Share Posted January 31, 2019 (edited) So, the ultimate solution to this is... placing an image in every artist folder now? Edited January 31, 2019 by KumarjitDey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8318 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 So, the ultimate solution to this is... placing an image in every artist folder now? Well it would be a current workaround for the issue, but you would have to test to see if it works for you. Otherwise wait for an official fix in a future release.

ryandavidg 30 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Having the same issue, and I do have images in the metadata/artists/xxx folders. As you can see there is no longer any artist backdrop for this album, but the backdrop which used to be there still appears in the relevant album artist. These two images in Album Artist are in metadata/artists/Paul Oakenfold Album Artist: Really hoping this can be fixed soon, spent a very long time putting together all these backdrops, some of which I made/edited in photoshop. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KumarjitDey 97 Posted January 31, 2019 Author Share Posted January 31, 2019 fix in a future release. Oh, please: 1. Fix this 2. Fix the Now Playing icon overlapping with 'Folders' in browsing page 3. Introduce Artist bio 3. Introduce Lyrics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
