Artwork "Lookup Image" stuck on "Searching...", efficient way to mass-add missing artwork?

Post by mp3_till_death »

Hello,
Fresh install of MM, am loving pretty much everything about the app. My only issue has been with artwork. When I try to use the automatic artwork lookup, the "Searching..." status just stays stuck on searching and doesn't return any results. I know I can copy paste image URLs, and going forward I plan to do that for all new albums I add. However, during my switchover to MM, it seems a lot of my albums lost their artwork. Is there any way to tell MM to search for missing album art and apply it to any songs that don't have artwork? I have the "Artwork" box checked under "Background metadata lookup" in Options, but it doesn't seem to be doing anything. Is the background Artwork lookup just going to take a long time? Is there something I can do to get it prioritized and start downloading artwork? if it's any help, it seems MediaMonkey Library is working under Media Sharing, it's connected to an IP and the status is shown as "Running", so I imagine that should mean MM is connected to the internet, and should be able to lookup artwork?

Any help is very appreciated. Thank you!

Please update to the latest 5.0.4 release available, this should fix the problem of Artwork lookups.
