Amarok Album Cover Problem?

Koruptor · 05-14-2007, 12:17 PM

I've been consolidating my MP3s on Amarok. (Great app by the way)

However, I've noticed that some of my songs have 2 different album covers in the Context tab, and will display a different cover in the OSD. I've tried deleting the wrong covers in the .kde/share/apps/amarok/albumcovers folder but they just reappear.

Anybody have this problem? How do I remove the wrong covers permanently?

I've never tried manually modifying the album cover files from the folder, but you should be able to set them all accordingly through the Cover Manager inside Amarok.

Go to the Tools menu, and it should be the first choice in the menu, labelled 'Cover Manager'.

Thanks for the reply sleepyEDB.

I tried that and the Cover Manager is "clean" of those covers. I took a screenshot of what I'm talking about. Check out the following picture. In this case it's a Lionel Richie song but it ALSO shows a Grand Theft Auto album cover...

Hmm...that is odd! I'm sorry to say that I can't be of more help. :-\

Perhaps this link will be a bit useful?
