Subsonic & Sonos Album/Folder Art

[RATTY]

Hi
On Sonos the Album art works on single albums. My music is saved in Music/A/Artists/Albums.

I'd like to see a graphic for A & Artist. I've tried saving a folder.jpg but not seeing it in the Sonos App.

Any ideas if this could work?

Cheers

John

First you have to remove the heap space problem as you can see at the link above

That's interesting, I have a huge Database > 200K and so far 99% are with cover Art, I have never had a problem like that. What size is the folder.jpg? Is it realy a jpg or renamed tiff or something else?
All my files have the cover included into the Tags plus folder.jpg in each folder. BUT I have always 500x500px and the file size is always optimized so most of my cover art has only 30-60kb.
I'm using XNview to edit the cover, but since using primary Windows, I'm using not the MP Version.

If you are not so familiar with linux, here how to

Inside XNview for resize Shift-S
and save in optimzed size Strg-Alt-S
In my opinion the second failure (Heap Space) is because the folder.jpg
