I have tried everything that I can find to get my CD cover images to display in MY Music. Here are some details, if needed; 90% of my music is in ogg format and the balance are mp3. I already have all the images which were retreived on my Linux box using the music player Amarok.
So, when I built gbpvr I copied all my music to C:\media\music. Then following another posting I copied my images and named them as follows (example) C:\media\music\Bob Seger\Live Bullet\Live Bullet.mpg, Live Bullet is the album name and the image is in with the misic files. That didn't work so I tried The God Father, way to confusing, so I tried MediaMonkey. MediaMonkey was much easier to work with but do I really have to search out one album image at a time? I can't do a "search for all images" or something like that, I really should have asked that 300 albums ago.
Now I have images in every album folder but I still can't see them with My Music. I have re-scanned the music but no difference, I've restarted gbpvr, re-scanned, verified the images are in the folder but still won't display. The steps I used were: select album > tools > auto tag from Amazon > auto tag > save image to album folder (I also tried save image to tag).
Does anyone know what I could be doing wrong?
Sorry I get so lengthy but I figure is saves on answering a lot of guestions later.

Thanks,

You know what worked for me is to go through WMP10 and click "process media information now"
If you want to know why nPVR is the bomb, ask my wife!

Just use the name "Folder" not the album? If so I have now named it as C:\media\Music\Bob Seger\Live Bullet\Folder.jpg (I incorrectly said I had named it "Live Bullet.mpg" in my first posting, it was "Live Bullet.jpg". I have now changed a few of my imaged to Folder.jpg but they still don't show. I've tried re-scanning and restarting, don't know if these steps are needed but I'm trying what ever I can think of.
Is my path correct, should the image be in the folder that is holding the music along with the music? The images I got from Amazon were .jpeg so I know the extension is correct. I have also tried the images that I got from my Linux box which were .png so I named them "Folder.png", still no show.

In gbpvr configuration I go to the plugin My Music > settings > database settings > scan music files.
I don't know if this step is needed but until I see the images I am doing what ever I can think of.
