Problem to fing album Art

Post by spoutnik » Sat Apr 28, 2012 10:40 am

Hello,

I just bought MPFreaker.

It has some problem to find album art.

For exemple, I tried to find the album art of "Welcome to Jamrock CD" album by "Damian Marley". It did not work.

I tried to find the album art on google and there are lots of results
https://www.google.fr/images?q=Damian+M ... hAeFtqz0Dg

Is there a bug?
Must I follow specific rules to obtain better results ?

Thank you

Unfortunately, MPFreaker cannot use Google to find album artwork. Other general image search APIs which were available have all been shut down or are prohibitively expensive.

That said, MPFreaker is supposed to be able to also find artwork through Wikipedia or Discogs.com. It looks like there have been some changes to these which may require a new release of MPFreaker in order to address, so look out for a minor update soon.
