Hi,

Since acquiring a Duet, I have been noticing that a lot of my album
artwork displays incorrectly on the SB Controller (and also in the web
interface, though I didn’t watch that so closely so I didn’t notice the
extent of the problem). It all displays fine in  Windows Media Player,
which I have used in the past to maintain my collection. 

I don’t know much about the way artwork is stored, but after much
research, I have discovered (with the help of MP3tag) that:

a) MP3 files can contain multiple embedded artwork pictures
b) When pasting album art in Windows Media Player, the pasted artwork
is added as a second (or subsequent) embedded picture after the
existing one. It does not replace the existing one.
c) SqueezeCenter displays the first embedded artwork, not the last
one.

For historical reasons, due to a bug in an artwork fixing program I
foolishly let loose on my collection and, I suspect, Windows Media
Player too, many of my MP3s have multiple embedded pictures. In
general, the last one is the correct one because I have pasted the
correct picture in via WMP.

What would solve a lot of my artwork display problems without spending
many hours in MP3tag, would be for SqueezeCenter to show the last
embedded picture instead of the first. 

Is there a setting somewhere which will do this? Failing that, is it
worth me raising a bug report (though it isn’t really a bug) to request
this as a change?

Regards,

Andy
