Installed beets today. I'm confused as to how to use the fetchart plugin.
When I enter 'beet fetchart' after importing music, it says 'beet: error: unknown command fetchart'. I thought these plugins come pre-installed. Does that mean I have to install fetchart manually. If yes, how do I do that?
The docs weren't of much help.

Thanks in advance!

Hi there,

The plugins that ship with beets are not enabled by default. To enable a plugin, put it on the "plugins:" line in your configuration file, as described here:
http://beets.readthedocs.org/en/1.0rc2/plugins/index.html#using-plugins

Good luck!

Adrian
