Dear All:
I'm new to subsonic and I really enjoy it! but I have a tricky problem, cover album are not displayed... "Main" page does not show anything, "Newest" albums only show a black square with a music note... I'm using version 4.2beta1
Any ideas ?
Thank you in advance.

How is your album art being stored? Is it in the ID3 tag, or an external file (folder.jpg, cover.jpg, etc)?

Dear stennie:
album information (the name) are stored on ID3 tags; I suppose sobsonnic will try to get from Internet or I'm wrong ?
Thank you.

I don't believe album art look-up is an automatic process. I haven't used it, personally, but I believe it requires you to edit the tags through the web interface and add the cover art that way.
Someone who has personal experience using the feature may be able to clarify, but I believe that's the basics.
EDIT: Also, Subsonic will recognize album art embedded into the ID3 tags or stored as an external image in the same folder as the music. So you can always add album art to your MP3s using a program like MediaMonkey or ID3Tagit
