Utestit: strange, I tested the same in the last build and it works for me as it should. Could you share with me (in private message here or in MM user ticket) your MM.DB, persistent.json and MediaMonkey.ini files packed in zip/rar/7z? They are in your Portable folder for portable installation, or in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\MediaMonkey5 for non-portable installation. I will look at it directly. Also tell me what tracks are you test it on, so I can use the same. Thanks.

Album art doesn't download anymore

Post by MusicLoverxXxX »

Hi,

Since shortly MMW 5.0.4.2693 doesn't download album art (images of songs) no more..

It's searching, but not finding and displaying anything.

How to fix this ?

Best regards,

Mario.

I am also having Album Art issues, so thought I would follow the instructions on the link, but there was no GPUCache to delete. Any other suggestions would be most welcome.

Which Build (Help > About) of MediaMonkey are you using and did you do a Portable or regular install?

Running on 2024.0.0.3005 and I no longer get any images ...just the spinning circle... :cry:

I have deleted the cache and checked my options...ive tried changing sources etc to no avail....This is a bit frustrating.

Windows 10 Pro. I can reinstall the debug version if needed to try and capture anything you may need.

@SusicMnob: sometimes you need to delete GPUCache again, as sometimes the problem returns after restart again. We are trying to find some solution, but as it is related to some problem in Chromium, which fails to load Google search site, it is problematic :-/.

I tested that as well....to no effect... changed the site, close, delete and restart......its dead to me :(

I manually add by googley and pull then drop into folder and search and find...but the auto search had been just fine for the past year plus so i donno... bummer...

I see, it seems Google made some changes and artwork search does not work. We are investigating it.

Can confirm I started experiencing this yesterday, but I don't have any folder showing a GPUCache. Is there anything else that could be causing this issue?

Currently using 5.0.4.2693.

Same issue or me. Began about a week ago. I'm able to locate the GPUCache file using Firefox, but can't figure out how to delete content. I get a list of files. When I try using File Explorer, the Temp folder doesn't appear in AppLocal.

See the General tab of MM5's Tools>Options panel.
That is where the temp directory folder location is configured.
Want a dark skin for MM5? This is the one that works best for me .. elegant, compact & clear.

I was able to find the GPUCache folder and delete the contents, but after closing out of MediaMonkey and reopening it, I'm still experiencing the same issue.

Artwork lookup has stop working again. I did the fix/workaround (just like last time) but it didn't fix the issue this time.
