Music Files Cover Art

[idh1909 1]

I am trying out the music library feature of Emby to compare it to the software I currently use. I have spent a considerable amount of time tagging all my files and creating cover art for the albums. The cover art is stored in the same folder as the album as cover.jpg

My question is how do I get Emby to just use the cover art I have created and not superimpose it over another piece. 

I have attached 2 files which show My Cover art and the one displayed in Emby music library.

Select Ignore or Plain treatment for Albums in Cover Art plugin settings.

Thank you for the response. It did fix my issue.

After additional testing I have decided to stick with my current music library software as it seems Emby is too reliant on MusicBrainz and in the testing I have done MusicBrainz consistently incorrectly identified music files and overwrote the work I had done on tagging. If there was a way to just read the MP3 tags that are in stored in the files I would try it more.
