I posted on Rainmeter's github about this as well... I think its more of an issue with the Nowplaying.dll plugin not parsing the correct path. or windows not passing the information on correctly.  Only for track 1 on any album. tracks 2 and beyond work fine which is the strangest part.

Thanks for the reply!  I'll keep digging to see if there are ant correlations with Store App and Plugins elsewhere.

Just a thought. could adding a symlink be done during the install process? Does this happen in other plugins that you know of?

Cheers!

Bug Reports / Windows Store Version + Rainmeter CAD plugin album art issue.

« on: February 21, 2019, 05:25:58 PM »

I've searched through the forum and didn't see this bug reported anywhere.

Using the Windows Store version of MusicBee.

Using a Rainmeter with a CAD plugin, for whatever reason album art would not display in the plugin for Track 1 of any album. Track 2+ work fine.  This only seems to be when the Album Art is embedded.  If its cover.jpg it seems to work fine.

Rainmeter is looking for the album art dat file located in:

Code

C:\Users\NAME\AppData\Local\MusicBee\InternalCache\

but that doesnt exist in the store version because its located in

Code

C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Packages\50072StevenMayall.MusicBee_kcr266et74avj\LocalCache\Local\MusicBee\InternalCache\

what i ended up doing as a workaround was symlinking from Appdata\Local\Packages... to Appdata\Local\MusicBee and it all works.

Not sure if this is a bug with the rainmeter, cad plugin, or MB.
