I'll put this into the next version.

Not so sure about this. What type of indicator would this be?

Do you mean the "Image" context menu? Never have seen this - can you
enable "debug" level logging for the plugin in Settings/Advanced/Loggin,
right-click the cover image and look for a message like this:
Code:
--------------------
[13-04-07 22:32:53.1405] Plugins::LMSnewGUI::Plugin::getImagesForTrack (1528)
res=[{'width' => 600,'name' => 'altcover','url' =>
'/plugins/LMSnewGUI/dynImage.jpg?imagePath=/data/music/Artist -
Album/altcover.jpg','trackid' => '709506','height' => 592},{'width' =>
500,'name' => 'cover','url' =>
'/plugins/LMSnewGUI/dynImage.jpg?imagePath=/data/music/Artist -
Album/cover.jpg','trackid' => '709506','height' => 494}]
--------------------
Are there any images duplicated already in this output?

Discogs is just brilliant, they have data on just about any release ever
produced (even really obscure bootlegs limited to 10 hand-signed audio
cassettes distributed as a bonus for a fanzine published in Ecuador in
1983 ;-)

You should expect most of the data that's being displayed on the
discogs.com website for releases and artists.
For a release (~album), the search is done using artist, album title and
year (if available). I have a hit rate of nearly 100%, if it's not found
it's usually that I have the year wrong, or that the title is different
(e.g. having the type of the album included, as in "Whatever EP",
"Whatever (Remastered)"). Have a look at the network section in Chrome's
Dev Tools to see what's sent. Example:
Code:
--------------------
http://api.discogs.com/database/search?type=master&artist=Seefeel&release_title=Polyfusia&year=
--------------------
If there is a "results" section in the response, the album has been
found. Example:
Code:
--------------------
... "results": [{"style": ["Abstract", "IDM", "Shoegazer", "Ambient"], ...
--------------------
You can take the API link, change the parameters for one of your albums,
and test it yourself in a browser.
