In Madsonic, it appears that when a playlist is created, Madsonic generates a mosaic to use as the "album art" for the playlist based on the album art of the artists in the playlist. I can see this in the web interface when I select Playlists.
A proper one would look like this:
However, for mobile apps, namely Madsonic and DSub, this album art mosaic isn't delivered properly. In DSub, the playlist screen contains a generic icon:
This generic icon also appears in Madsonic Mobile in the upper left corner when a playlist is selected.
Instead, the album art should be the mosaic created by Madsonic to represent the playlist. In the case of DSub against a Subsonic server, the album art mosaic is correctly displayed.

I got mixed results with those:Madevil wrote:confirmed, will be fixed with next release.
On my device, all playlists mosaics came through except the first 5 in my list.
On a second device, all but the first three.
On a third device, none of them appeared on the device.

Re: Server does not provide playlist mosaic to mobile apps
two cache locations are involved to this issue:
Server:
stop Madsonic
remove /var/madsonic/thumbs folder
restart Madsonic
Client:
clear /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/github.daneren2005.dsub/files/artwork
or use GUI
DSUB > Settings > Cache/Network > clear Cache
This should fix it!
best regards
