I have a suggestion to partially resolve this issue.
Because I have some rather estoreric artists in my library I reckon I
have a Trumpeter ratio of 3-4% at present which my OCD is not happy
with, most of these come as a result of VA albums ripped from Magazine
covermount CDs.
As these are VA albums the artist.jpg in artist / album folder won’t
work and as identified a suitably named jpg in the central store may be
difficult to achieve if the artist name is at all unusual.
So my suggestion for the scanner
artist.jpg
artist image in store
online lookup
If all 3 fail display album cover art from first album the artist is
listed in
Only if there is no cover art display Trumpeter
This should clear up my OCD but will still indicate which artists don’t
have a valid image
I wouldn’t have thought it is much of a code change either
