Yeah, that worked! Dragging the album artwork stored in tag to the first spot, over the overall cover did the trick.
Even so, I hope you consider implement that "dynamic artwork" on future releases for MM5.

Thank you for your time.

I'm afraid the problem is not fully fixed on ver. 2024.0.0.3005.
Some folders show whatever has the word "Front" in there, first thing that comes:

So, yeah, sorry if this is recurrent and I'm being nitpicky, but having this way to organize my collection is the main reason I chose MM over any other player in the entire world.

Are you browsing through Folders? The correct Artwork is known? Did this work correctly on build 3003, but now fails on 3005?

Yeah, the directory is 🎧Music>📁Location>[Disk]>[Music Folder]
On each album the correct artwork should be like this:
https://imgur.com/kv0OJLD (compare with last post).
I got those from reverting to 5.0.4 and scanning again. Then, going back to 3005 still shows them like this. As you know, they are showing the first image from the first track artwork metadata (as a personal opinion, I prefer them more like that).
Compare with my last post. That was the result from scanning on 3005.

No, I think it didn't work on 3003, nor 3005. It takes whatever file has "Front" on the name, so some are correct, some others not.

Hi,
in the previous build there was a bug that artworks that should be "Not specified" were detected as "Cover (front)",
this was fixed as https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view ... 686#c74495 in build 3003, but you need to re-scan the directories.

So if you remove the files from the library and re-add them the artwork/covers should be already all right, isn't it?
Also based on https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=12245 when there are two artworks detected as "Cover (front)" then the artwork with better resolution has higher priority...

In case you still see an issue feel free to share sample files/folder with us via eSupport ticket ( https://www.mediamonkey.com/support/ ), zip the files/folder and upload it to a free file hosting service (DropBox, RapidShare, FileDropper, MediaFire, ...) and share just the link to the file.

Thanks!

Nope, precisely on 3003 and 3005 is where I'm having this issue with artwork. Scanning the files on both versions brings the mess.
Maybe because I was content with the ones on 5.0.4, since they are quite more pleasing to see.
