Coverart Files for each Media Folder?
Posted: 24 Apr 2013, 04:05
In Settings --> General --> Coverart Files, it would be nice to have the ability to specify different coverart files for each media folder you have added. For example, I have 3 Media Folders, Music, Podcasts, TV Shows. For my Music folder, I like to have no coverart set because all of my files are tagged with albumart embedded. However, for the TV Shows folder, I like to be able tell it to look for "poster.jpg" A third example would be a 4th media folder called Movies. For this folder, I'd like to be able to specify the coverart file as [movie title].tbn.
This way it's highly customizable. Being able to specify a file type for coverart is pretty vague. But if you were able to tell it to look for a specific file name (ie. poster.jpg), it is much more useful for media files other than music.
I am sure many others are using a mediaserver at home, and are also using Subsonic/Madsonic for remote access to their media. For example, I am using XBMC. It would be nice to have a bit more control over the coverart in Madsonic to streamline things between all media applications. I upgraded to Madsonic yesterday from Subsonic 4.8 and am loving it. Great work! The access control lists are worth it alone!
