Public bug reported:
Some media formats allow for the storage of multiple pieces of artwork
tagged with an image type. This includes:
1. ID3v2's APIC artwork
2. FLAC pictures
3. vorbiscomment's METADATA_BLOCK_PICTURE (which is just a base64 encoded FLAC
picture).
Thumbnailer will only produce a thumbnail for artwork marked as "front
cover" or "other". This means that if we encountered a file with art
but no "front cover" art, mediascanner might direct an application to
request embedded art (which will fail), when it might be possible to
successfully get online artist/album artwork.
How likely this is to affect users is unknown. I don't think we've had
any bug reports about this behaviour yet, so files this would effect are
either exceedingly rare or don't exist outside of test suites.
