Angelblue05 4132 Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 I am not certain yet if it is yet, but that's what we saw in your logs. My fanart also is at artist level, but the fanart is returned with the song. I just need to do more testing. In the meantime, can you try to repeat this? Try removing artist/album/songs from Emby. Refresh your library. Then once they are removed, re-add them and see if the issue persists.
QDivision 42 Posted February 1, 2019 Author Posted February 1, 2019 Do you mean remove my whole music library from Emby or just one album/song. I don't want to lose any metadata.
Angelblue05 4132 Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 (edited) No, I mean just remove a single artist. But if that is too difficult. Create a new artist/album/song entry for testing purposes Edited February 1, 2019 by Angelblue05 1
QDivision 42 Posted February 1, 2019 Author Posted February 1, 2019 Just tried with a brand new artist and I have the same problem
Angelblue05 4132 Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 Ok. Well don’t give up hope just yet. 1
QDivision 42 Posted February 5, 2019 Author Posted February 5, 2019 Is there anything else I can do to help debug this?
Angelblue05 4132 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 (edited) It's just for some reason the artist fanart is not returned with your song and so it ends up being empty. I'm not sure why this is happening. @@Luke Is the artist fanart supposed to be returned with the song? Or how can we troubleshoot this? Edited February 6, 2019 by Angelblue05
Luke 42077 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 Yea, do you see them in the web app on the album detail screen?
QDivision 42 Posted February 6, 2019 Author Posted February 6, 2019 @@Luke I see them in the web app on the artist detail section not the album detail. It has worked before and it still works if I start the song from Kodi itself.
Luke 42077 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 what do you see on the album detail screen?
QDivision 42 Posted February 6, 2019 Author Posted February 6, 2019 (edited) Just the album artwork. That's normal though isn't it? Edited February 6, 2019 by DIY-Sensei
sualfred 677 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 You should see the artist fanart in the background. 1
QDivision 42 Posted February 6, 2019 Author Posted February 6, 2019 (edited) Nope, I don't see that! I only see it on the artist level. I also don't think I ever have but it has worked previously. I have made a separate post a few days ago about not seeing the artist backdrop on the album level or the song level on the web app. https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/69362-music-fanart-at-albumsong-level/ So this is likely an emby server issue although don't understand why I seem to be the only one having the issue, I have a fairly standard installation.

Angelblue05 4132 Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Just keeping you updated, sualfred found a thing to help with this situation. However we are still not able to make artwork appear. I am going to reach out to the Kodi folks, hopefully they will have an idea. Huge thanks for your patience. 1
QDivision 42 Posted March 25, 2019 Author Posted March 25, 2019 Thanks for the update, hopefully they can help!
QDivision 42 Posted April 19, 2019 Author Posted April 19, 2019 The latest emby update has fixed the fanart not appearing and by the looks of it Kodi RC2 will fix the party mode artwork.
sualfred 677 Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) Yeah, we were in touch with the Kodi devs and all playback from the music DB (incl. partymode) will work again in RC2. Only song playback via widget or PlayMedia() built in function will cause missing artworks. But that won't be fixed for Leia. Too late to the party. Edited April 19, 2019 by sualfred 1
