But I'll whip up a little widget to fix album art if someone will post a definitive set of commands and I see a couple people say, "works for me". It's not clear to me what the magic commands are yet.

Do I need to write a script to do both jcompagner / Weiner's suggestion (move any files named Folder.jpg to cover.jpg and run tracker-processes -r) and ravbin's suggestion (delete /home/user/.cache/media-art/*, any .mediaartlocal folders, and /home/user/.cache/tracker/file-*, then run tracker-processes -r ), or just one or the other?
I agree and that was my only concern is that we do not have a proper command set yet, esp since the 1.1 update things may be different now. I noticed my album art loads faster on the main selection screen so that may mean things have changed up in how they load/store.

I'll do some testing later tonight and let you know how it goes.

I do belive people with the worst issues needed to delete the local content and then update the tracker because just refreshing the tracker it still loaded the old cover art stored in the local folders.

I think even still as far as this thread goes we have only discovered the location of the "large art" the ones that you see while a track is playing and not the smaller icons that you see when picking the album from the main menu.

But thanks for coming so quickly to help out.
