Re: [slim] art problem - ghost cover.jpg's

2008-08-27 Thread ctbarker32

Well, I continue to work through this. I find that if I touch the album
files (flac) using Mediamonkey (my preferred album management tool) it
forces SC 7.1 to re-look at the directory and to add the correct album
art. Also, I have come to realize that internally SC 7.1 seems to
convert all album art names to cover.jpg independent to what the
actual names are which in my case are all Album Art.jpg?

So doing it the hard and long way I'll eventually get SC 7.1 to
recognize all of my art!

Well, the files are either cached serverside and/or in a db.
If deleting the cache doesn't work, emptying the correct table should.

I guess you already tried clearing the browser cache?

Yes, cleared client side browser cache several times. Unfortunately to
no avail.

From my observations, it would appear the clear and rescan function
does not do a full cleanup of the mysql database and leaves original
entries intact. I don't understand why this is the case why it could
not be easily addressed?

Thanks.

Sounds like you need to blow away the server side cache in C:\Documents
and Settings\All Users\Application Data\SqueezeCenter\Cache

and then do a full rescan...

Re: [slim] art problem - ghost cover.jpg's

2008-08-25 Thread ctbarker32

Um, I am using linux. Which exact cache folder do I need to blow away.
I've already deleted the Artwork cache and rescanned. Is this a guess or
do you know for certain this will work? Still begs the question, why
does full scan not blow away cache? Seems to be self defeating if it
does not?

Thanks.

Delete the entire cache folder (wherever it is on your system) and
rescan.
It's NOT the artwork cache but the database you need to clear to fix
this. No it's NOT a guess.

Re: [slim] art problem - ghost cover.jpg's

2008-08-25 Thread ctbarker32

Okay, I deleted the files in the directory
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/FileCache and did a full rescan. This did
not fix the problem. Previously, I had deleted the files in
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/Artwork.

These are the only two directories that I see that I feel are safe to
delete. If these are the correct cache directories then could the
problem be in the mysql db itself. A table that is not be cleared
correctly?

I think Phil realy meant you to delete the entire cache folder
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache go to /var/lib/squeezecenter/ and delete
cache

did you start the rescan yourself ? if you delete the right files SC
will rebuild the dB from scratch and automatically start the rescan
after you start SC.
Btw stop SC before deleting cache

I checked my command history in bash for my linux server, I have done a
rm -rf cache in /var/lib/squeezecenter/ in the past and my server
did not explode.

Thanks for your specific instructions. I did as you instructed. After
removing the cache directory entirely with your command and restarting
SC, a library rescan was automatically started as you predicted.

Fifty minutes later, the scan completes normally but alas the problem
still remains.

I thank you for your help. At this point I think we have to eliminate
the cache as the issue and look at the mysql db for the source of the
problem. I am ignorant about manipulating the mysql db so I don't have
a clue where to begin?

[slim] art problem - ghost cover.jpg's

2008-08-24 Thread ctbarker32

Hi,

Running 7.1, multiple SB3s and new Duet. Linux sever, over 1 terabyte
of mostly FLAC rips. 

I know the album art issue is long running but it can be pretty
frustrating. I have settled on using Album Art.jpg as my art name for
each directory not embedded for each album. I need the Album Art.jpg to
maintain compatibility when I transcode to portable media, etc.

I used to use cover.jpg or folder.jpg. I have entered Album Art.jpg
into the server web gui. This works well for new albums added. For
existing, albums that once were cover.jpg but are now changed to Album
Art.jpg, SC 7.1 still points to cover.jpg (the file is not there)! I
have done a full wipe and rescan. I have manually done a delete of the
folders in the Artwork Cache and nothing works! It still points to
artwork that is no longer there.

How do I fix this? Why does the full rescan not really clean the
database? I really wish this could be fixed!

Thanks.

-CB
