No Album Covers For Newly Copied CDs

[dimondman]

I bought an external HDD to copy all my CDs in lossless format onto, using itunes. Now all of my original mp3 copies that are in the itunes folder on my computers hard drive have album artwork on my duet but none of the new copies on the external drive even though they are the same albums. All the album artwork is still in its original folder on my computer. How do I get the artwork to be shown for my newly copied albums?

Open up your Squeezebox Server Control Panel, and at the bottom of the window click the "Rescan" button, with the scroll box on the left set to look for new and changed music. If you are using the Squeezebox web server, click the "Settings" button and do the rescan there.

Go to amazon.com and open the album level detail (to get a decent sized image.)

Drag and drop it in the music folder for that album.

When the download finishes, rename the jpg to cover.jpg.
