You will find the reference to the image cache ID in the tracks table of the database. You can call it in other ways than /current/cover.jpg iirc Bear in mind the cache reference will change on a clear and rescan VB2.4[/B] STORAGE *QNAP TS419P (NFS) [B]Living Room* Joggler & Pi4/Khadas -> Onkyo TXNR686 -> Celestion F20s *Office* Joggler & Pi3 -> Denon RCD N8 -> Celestion F10s *Dining Room* SB Boom *Kitchen* UE Radio (upgraded to SB Radio) *Bedroom (Bedside)* Pi Zero+DAC ->ToppingTP21 ->AKG Headphones *Bedroom (TV) & Bathroom* SB Touch ->Denon AVR ->Mordaunt Short M10s + Kef ceiling speakers *Guest Room* Joggler > Topping Amp -> Wharfedale Modus Cubes Everything controlled by iPeng & Material on iOS d6jg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44051 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114442 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Retrieving cover art via CLI
I generally use folder.jpg for cover art ... so I just tried to retrieve the cover art for a track that I know has no embedded artwork and the album has a folder.jpg ... and it worked as I think you would hope.

I think the following rules apply in this order 1. Use embedded artwork in first track of album 2. Use folder.jpg if it exists 3.
