I pre-cached only album artwork. Now I changed the setting to pre-cache
album, photo and video artwork, cleared the database
and made an complete scan : the problem is still there.  Windows
explorer show  correct filenames, I simply copied the directory
containing the picture file via samba to a linux system - here it works
pretty well. I tagged my database very carefully with a 
correct spelling of all the names. The composers I coded as <surname>,
<given name> such as "Dvo&#345;ák, Antonín". By such a famous
composer the internet search from MAI is successful and I can see a nice
picture with his correct name. But for "Bozza, Eugène" and more unknown
composer I made a search by hand, found a picture (sometimes not) and
put it into my directory - MAI on Windows is not able to find this
file.
I had the possibility to make a test on Fedora 20 (X_64) and on an
ARM-based QNAP -NAS, both without problems (sure - bot are linuxe).
If I can help you to debug this issue, I will do so, but only starting
mids of september.

Regards

Bernd
