Description

After fix 13040 I can see the album art only from one album, all other albums are blank. Based on the attached log it seems that there's something wrong with music_directories.path (full log attached). Fix 13047 doesn't seem to fix this.

Non working album:

2007-03-15 22:02:16.224 MSqlQuery: SELECT CONCAT_WS('/', music_directories.path, music_albumart.filename) FROM music_albumart LEFT JOIN music_directories ON music_directories.directory_id=music_albumart.directory_id WHERE music_directories.path = 'ythtv/music/Audioslave/Audioslave';

Working album:

2007-03-15 22:02:24.224 MSqlQuery: SELECT CONCAT_WS('/', music_directories.path, music_albumart.filename) FROM music_albumart LEFT JOIN music_directories ON music_directories.directory_id=music_albumart.directory_id WHERE music_directories.path = 'Various_Artists/William_Shakespeare''s_Romeo_+_Juliet';

Could you give an example of how the files are laid out so I can maybe try to reproduce this.

Replying to paulh:

I managed to fix this bug by changing in MythMusic settings "Directory to hold music" from /music to /home/mythtv/music (/music was symbolic link to the same directory).

The structure in the music directory is artist/album/songs + folder_large.jpg containing the album art, see attached example.txt.

Don't seem to be able to reproduce this one. Closing as works for me.
