thank for your reply.

No. We don't usually have cover art stored in the song's folder.

Therefore musicPlayers most always tries to fetch them from internet
with rather unsatisifying results. In addition, to my experience even if
in some way related to the artist playing, covers are not always the
same than the ones displayed on the player. Therefore I doubt that
musicPlayer received any from the players tested here (Rhythmbox and
Exaile).

Cairo-dock plugin musicPlayer loads ridiculous covers

Bug description:
MusicPlayer desklet (1.0.3) detached from the dock (2.1.3-7) does not display album covers irrespecitve of players e.g. exaile,  rhythmbox, or others tested (maybe this is related to [https://bugs.launchpad.net/cairo-dock-plug-ins/+bug/534680]).

When letting the desklet download covers from internet then covers are displayed but 10-20% of covers are ridiculously wrong.

It would be nice when covers were not loaded at all if they don't fit. An additional improvement could be to let the user choose different sources from where to download, including local folders.
