Well, it took them four months to "fix" the previous problems, so don't

Downloading the artwork and putting it into the album folder (and naming

Realize that you must rebuild the library and album thumbs after doing
this for them to show up. They won't magically show up if you don't do
a rebuild.

the future and actually make it happen.
P.S. If the word hell bothers you then I would advise you to jump into
a time machine and go back about 100 years when one did not run into
such words being used in a public v
ty.
When the alarm goes off there should be a LARGE time display and some
clear instructions on what to do to snooze, disable, or disable and keep
playing the music.
I don't imagine it would be complicated at all and I could prob
hope that the next update that fixes some of these other
issues doesn't take another four months to issue.

reason that you need a PC on 24/7 for alarms to
