When I copy this track to my phone, it gets scanned by the mediascanner and the result from the scope looks like this:
received result: category id=songs { "album": "Paris - CD1" "art": "image://albumart/artist=Supertramp&album=Paris%20-%20CD1" "artist": "Supertramp" "dnd_uri": "file:///home/phablet/Music/supertramp_1979_paris_cd1_School.mp3" "duration": 321 "title": "School" "track-number": 1 "uri": "file:///home/phablet/Music/supertramp_1979_paris_cd1_School.mp3" } So the online album art service is being invoked correctly, but it doesn't return any art for the ("Supertramp", "Paris - CD1") pair. If the file's tags are corrected to use the actual album title of "Paris", then art is displayed correctly, so this is not a general problem of no tracks displaying online art. Can I ask where the file came from or how it was tagged? Was the " - CD1" suffix manually entered in, or is there some tagger that adds it automatically? ** Changed in: unity-scope-mediascanner (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity-scope-mediascanner in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1382027 Title: Tracks without embedded art do not download the art Status in “unity-scope-mediascanner” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Steps to reproduce: 1.
