Re: [Banshee-List] BUG-Embedded album art not loading on successive songs

[Gilbert Mendoza <gmendoza gmail com>]

Hey there.  Just as an FYI... I too was having a significant number of
challenges with embedded album art with what I thought was isolated to
recent builds of Banshee.  The symtoms were very similar... audio
plays fine... metadata appears to be read appropriately... but artwork
would not extract.

I found that there were some issues with all my tracks that I had
religiously been converting to v2.4 UTF-8 tags (the default in
EasyTag).  Simply converting back to 2.3 tags woudln't do it either.
I had to strip all the tags, including the artwork... and re-add
everything back as v2.3 tags.

After doing that, all artwork has no trouble being extracted.  Can you
give that a shot on a few of your MP3's and let us know?
