Problem with music cover art


Recommended Posts

When I set up my music library I named all my cover art as the folder name dot jpg.  They all display fine on the emby dashboard and on the emby roku app.

I just got a WiiM ultra which can display cover are, but it doesn't understand that naming format.  It wants the cover art to be named literally "album.jpg" or "cover.jpg".  There are also a number of other alternatives.  When I do that, the WiiM ultra sees the cover are but the emby app starts displaying the cover art as a collage of four copies of the cover.

Does anyone know why emby is doing this or how to work around it?  Thanks.

WiiM has it's own requirements for names that has nothing to do with Emby.  You could batch copy all the images to WiiM album.jpg. Command line xcopy and other file renaming software can do all your files by clicking enter once.  When you find out how to do that, it's a pretty easy fix.

Yes, wiim likes cover.jpg or folder.jpg.  The question is, why does emby display a single cover.jpg file as a collage of 4 copies?  That doesn't seem right.
