Coverart don't appear


Recommended Posts

Good Morning. I decided to create a podcast aggregator on my NAS using Emby. However, Emby is not showing the image of the episodes. The mp3 files have the coverart built in. How do I make them appear?

Hi there, how did you setup the library in emby server?

I pointed to the folder where the podcasts are downloaded and set it as music and left everything to default.

The situation is as follows: each podcast is in a folder, and all of them in a single folder. One of these podcasts has, in the mp3 file of each episode, a cover image related to the subject of the episode. When creating the library, using music, audio books or mixed content, the internal name of the episodes appears but the cover image either does not appear or is the same for all episodes. I've recreated the library several times and the same thing happens.

Can you zip up a folder of these and provide them for testing? Thanks.

My HDD was a problem. As soon as I recover the files, if possible, I do that.

Server 4.5.0.16 beta

I unzipped your compressed file and kept the directory and files AS IS without touching them.  So all 4 files ended up in this directory:

C:\Library\Music\emby_td1p

I then created a Music library using defaults and did nothing but add one folder to the library which was this

C:\Library\Music

After scanning the new library I got exactly what I expected except for one error:

Podtrash 518 is not showing the correct cover art as it's using the embedded artwork from 483.

That is the problem. If this happened in 4 episodes, imagine 600? 300 episodes have the same cover.

So, any solution?

@Luke Have you taken a look at this yet where it's getting meta data from the wrong file?

I dont know. This podcast in particular has the correct metadata in every episode, so I don't know why Emby isn't getting the right information. I've tried to create the library using music, audio books, series and mixed content. The same problem.

Ok, @cayars can jump on with you and do a little deeper investigation. Thanks.

Looking at these mp3's to me it is common metadata linking related even though each track has its own image.  Modifying AlbumArtist starts changing track image in Emby.

No need @Luke some of the pictures above are mine as I can reproduce the issue from the content he supplied for testing.

@cayars are you seeing this issue related to tags?

Posted

Yes, look at the Aug 10th post I made showing the wrong picture for a file.

Are they from the same album?

Podcast episode 518 is wrong. 

Posted

But are they from the same album?

Try removing the music library from Emby Server, and then adding it back with the audio books content type.
