Better Album Art Recognition

[jeffgt14]

I posted this in the DSub forum and was told it’s more of a subsonic request as the API only pulls cover art if there is music in the directory so I’m moving it over here:

Would it be possible to allow DSub to pull a *.jpg picture for the cover art if there is no music in that specific folder? The reason I ask this is for things like boxsets and such. I’ll try to give an example of my music directory, as the structure would go like this:

Jethro Tull/2015 – Minstrel In The Gallery (40th Anniversary) [2CD]/Disc1 – Minstrel in the Gallery/tracks…
Jethro Tull/2015 – Minstrel In The Gallery (40th Anniversary) [2CD]/Disc2 – Live at the Palais des Sports/tracks…

Now when I’m browsing through albums under Jethro Tull, even though I have a cover.jpg in “Jethro Tull/2015 – Minstrel In The Gallery (40th Anniversary) [2CD]/” it won’t show the cover art because the music is in another folder within that directory. Currently I try to get around this by placing essentially a 0.01 second long “blank” mp3 file in that same directory so DSub thinks that there is music there and pulls the cover.jpg so I can see it but it’s very inconvenient to do.

I get the same problem with boxsets of albums too where I would like the main cover under the artist to be the cover of the boxset and then once I go into that directory, the individual albums would have their own cover art to them.
