Hi Hans,
Here is what I did and make it work:
ln -s /var/lib/mpd/music /var/www/Music
where "/var/lib/mpd/music" stores all my music files. In MPod,
1. set the URL for cover art to "http://<voyage ip>/Music" in MPod.
2. rename the cover art as Folder.jpg in the corresponding album directory.
3. You need to restart MPod to make the change effective, somehow.
Regards,
Punky

Hi Hans,
Please read:
http://www.katoemba.net/makesnosenseatall/2011/03/05/cover-art-in-mpod-and-mpad/
MPod and MPad search the cover arts under http://machine-ip/music. So
I think it needs to make a correct mount point in lighttpd.
Can you also post your lighttpd.conf?
I have no experience on the cover arts, but will explore it in the
next MPD release.
Regards,
Punky

Hi,
Here is a question about cover art.
Voyage Linux MPD is working great the only thing not working is cover
art with Mpod and Mpad.
Every album is in a simple directory structure /artist/album
Besides the music tracks in every map “album” there is also a file
named folder.jpg (the cover art).
I edited lighttpd.conf to /mnt/public as the file where my music is
located.
With an other (Windows)PC I see (Internet Explorer) all the music at
http://192.168.1.31 <http://192.168.1.31/> (the IP of my Voyage MPD
computer).
So the lighttpd fileserver is working good. (I think).
In the Ipod setup for cover art I set : URL = http://192.168.1.31
<http://192.168.1.31/> file name folder.jpg.
In the Ipod setup, setup for albums is “per directory”.
I tried to change everything but still do not see (local) cover art.
Could you explain how the above (simplest) system should work? (Or
can it work?)
Maybe a simple setup or howto guide would be welcomed by many users.
Kind regards,
Hans
