Title: MusicBee Automatically Downloading Artist and Album Pics?
Post by: Scorsone on September 11, 2016, 08:06:34 PM
Okay, maybe it's my imagination but I don't think it is.  MusicBee seems to be downloading continuously Artist and Album pics and replacing those which I've selected myself.  Sometimes I don't like the pics that come along as tags and I select my own.  But it seems that MusicBee replaces them as I notice things have changed when I might scroll through my library. 

It's not the end of the world, but it sure is annoying.  Is there a way to turn this off?  I've dug through the menus but when I've changed things in the past is usually when things begin to go badly for me...  Leave well enough alone as they say...

If you use Windows Media Player (even just opening it once) and your artwork is stored in folder.jpg then search the forum or hydrogenaud.io for settings to stop WMP replacing the folder.jpg file.
MusicBee doesnt have any functionality to replace existing artwork by itself ie. you would need to perform some action yourself

Steven,

Thanks for the response, I appreciate it and will look into what you had to say.  Also, just wanted to say that I've really enjoyed MusicBee, first 2.0 and now even more so 3.0.  Can't believe all the work that you've put into this thing.  Coming off ITunes, have to say that it was really nice to find such a capable alternative...
