Hi,

The plugin does not show the artwork of the albums where I configured
the artwork manually in iTunes (chosen picture on my local hd).

Could be a nice feature to support that too :)

Hi,

iTunes lets you have multiple album artwork images for each song.
However, gdTunes only shows whatever picture is chosen as the first
album art image in iTunes. It is possible that iTunes automatically
downloaded artwork and put it in the first position, or for some reason
you may have other artwork in the first slot that is preventing you from
seeing your artwork, which is not in that slot. Move the artwork you
manually added to the first album art slot to fix the problem. If you
have no use for the feature, disabling the Automatically Download Album
Artwork feature could also help.

Thanks,

Aaron,

First of all, my excuses for the bogus bug report on gdtunes, because
it was my fault apparently.

I manually assigned artwork to one song of an album in iTunes. iTunes
then shows this artwork in the 3d cover flow for all songs for that
album. But the artwork is not assigned to the rest of the songs in the
album.

using the IITTrack.Artwork in the api thus returns an empty
artworkcollection. (I checked).

Keep up the good work.

PS: I Still have the completely white gdTunes problem now and then.
I'll send a screenshot.

That's fine; I'm glad that problem is resolved.
