[Bug 426329] Re: Rhythmbox fails to display cover image from id3 tag

 

I also have this very weird and exhausting problem as well!! But for me, it seems like Rhythmbox only shows cover art directly from Last.fm and displays a label "Image provided by Last.fm" when I hover over with mouse...
The most annoying thing is that I HAVE id3 covers in my mp3 collection which has about 1000+ songs and they are all bought from Ovi Music _without_ DRM... If Last.fm doesn't have cover art for an album or song, it doesn't display any artwork, which is really frustrating, since it _is_ embedded in the files :/ I am running latest Fedora 15 (Lovelock) and latest Rhythmbox they provide in the repositories (currently, 2.90.1)
Can _anyone_ try to fix this? I am certain there is a problem in the plugin that loads cover art, and like others said; the covers are loaded perfectly in any other application, be it Itunes, Banshee, or whatever... The thing is, I really like Rhythmbox with the smooth transitions between tracks and the great Gtk3 look, I just wished the damn covers could load properly!
