v1.5.7 is out with a bunch of fixes and improvements: - fix downloading artwork from https sources in the scanner (probably a Windows only issue) - accept jpeg in addition to jpg file extension in all cases - log an error when an image folder is not writable to LMS Thanks

I’m struggling to find consistency here especially when I don’t know if the scanner simply doesn’t like my chosen file name and the browser image cache needs to be cleared every rescan so forget this. Cache indeed can be a problem. If in doubt, wipe cache.db and imgproxy.db before the scan...

If there are 2 or more new images a scan for "new & changed files" only seems to find the first image. I certainly can't confirm that. It's processing whatever list is being returned from the database, no matter the scan mode or how many items in that list. -- Michael

I think it would be good to be able to see the artist image if there is one available for the track that is playing and not always the folder.jpg - it could show the folder.jpg if no artist image found for the current track. I'm not going there. This just sounds like too exotic of an edge case
