gnome-music does not display album art

All my music folders have Album Art jpg images. Those images work correctly in the Banshee and Clementine players. But in gnome Music they do not appear. Any one else has this issue?

Re: gnome-music does not display album art

Are you sure that Gnome Music actually looks for 'Album Art.jpg' images? There are several different conventions for album art filenames (as well as actually embedding the image in the mp3 file), read the documentation to see which ones Gnome Music will detect.

Same for me. I have cover.jpg in all album folder and album cover in tag (written with easytag)

$ gnome-music

Re: gnome-music does not display album art

The new 3.24 release of Gnome (and its associated applications) is due out next week, it may be worth holding out for that to see if it fixes the issue before pursuing this further.

I had the same issue and I just updated to gnome-music 3.24 via the gnome-unstable repo. The album art is now showing correctly

Re: gnome-music does not display album art

With gnome 3.24 album art is displayed only in bottom progress bar. Album and artist view in now blank.
