BLANK ALBUM COVERS
I've read a couple of other threads about this problem and never seem to formulate a reason or answer. My new album covers do not automatically
look-up anymore. When I force a look-up it comes back with the the title and year but an album cover that is just blank or black. It was said to be
fixed in version 3.53, but I still have the problem.

shrip,
I would like to help you! But as i don't use the album look-up feature... because that doesn't work fine for me too!
I think in general, Audiosoft still needs to improve the albums look-up features in comparison to others programs...

I have this problem too, and it seems to be related to invalid tag info. There are some tag programs that I have tried that store the album image
differently than eJukebox; causing eJ to display blank or empty album covers. I know it's a pain, but using a tag editing program, delete all
but the basic info from the tag (keep the artist, song title, album name & year).
Start up eJ and see if it now downloads an album image. It works for me.

Ahh... yes the album image storage seems to be different depending on the tag editor used. What a shame! I don't know who is right?...
That would be great if the image tag info could also be normalized just as well the others basic infos...

I've also tried to point out bugs in the tag read system in a post. Without any further responses . This is not a problem that's only related to mp3's but to a range of usual formats like ogg, wma and
mpc!
I don't like this, and hope that it will not become an issue of ignorance in further development.

Shrip,
What type of internet connection do you use? Dial-up?

no, I use an always-on, broadband connection. When a new album is played it doesn't even attempt a look-up.

UPGRADED to v3.6 STILL NO ALBUM COVERS!!!!
I was hoping that in v3.6 that the blank album covers would be fixed, but it is still happening. I posted a response to your question Audiosoft, but I
don't get a response?!?! I'd like to try to isolate this problem and find out if it something with the software of it is something with my
end of things. Please hhhhhheeeeeeellllllllppppppp!!!

What version of Internet Explorer do you have? Please try download and re-installing the latest version from: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/downloads/critical/ie6sp1/default.asp
Then see if you can lookup an album in the eJukebox editor.

ANY SOLUTIONS/ANSWERS YET???
Still waiting to hear an answer. I don't know if this problem is just an anomoly or what, but I would like to see it get fixed. I have all the
right info for all my songs but no album covers, except for the ones I've manually added via EJ, and it's getting real monotinous. It
doesn't even attempt a look up when a new song is played, it just displays the blank cd image.

That is because it will not auto lookup an album image for the playing song again if an attempt was already made which fails to find an album/image
(when connected to the net).
Can you get it to find a single image when using the editors lookup?
I don't know what to tell you...though it seems like everyone has the same problem...I don't think anyone really has the same problem as
you. They are all different issues...like:

|
Which is because eJukebox does not support reading or writing to tags other than MP3. So when using those formats images will be lost after
rebuilding.
Anyways, I want to figure this out for you. You must have a corrupt or missing windows system file. I will try to find other things for you to
download to see if it fixes it...but i fear the only real solution is a reinstallation of windows.
Before doing that you will want to first try deleting "C:\Program Files\eJukebox" and re-installing the full version of eJukebox. You
probally allready tried that but hey ya never know....

I have been having the same problem as shrip for a while now - album cover lookup just stopped working a while ago. I have reformatted my hard drive
and reinstalled windows - but that didn't work.

A while ago it just quit working, I don't know if it was after an update or what. However, just recently I had my windows registry corrupted and
had to reformat and install windowsm, and I thought that it would take care of the problem. So my copy of Windows is fresh as well as the install for
EJ. I only have MP3s, not any wma, ogg, etc. Through the editor when I do an auto look up, it will acts as if it's found an album because it
enters the album name and year like it is supposed to, but the album image just comes back black or white. I

HERE WE GO AGAIN
Welp, here we go again in circles, with no answer or solution. I don't know if this isn't important or what, but I'd like to know if
the problem can or will be fixed. Thanks:mad:
