I have been using "Album Art Downloader" for a while and I realised that it always gets me 1200px square size iTunes artwork while MusicBee gets around 600px of the same. Any idea why?

Questions / Re: How does MB search within Google for artwork?
« on: May 02, 2014, 02:16:57 PM »I had bookmarked this because that time I felt the instructions were too complex. But now I finally tried and I think it's AWESOME. Well, takes a lot of logic to figure out your way if you're a newbie, but it works perfectly.So we need another tool within MB that is dedicated to album artwork - much like the 'album tagging tool.'
I have this configured as a hotkey button with Send To > External Tool: http://www.tomsguide.com/us/download/Album-Art-Downloader,0301-25910.html
It's a little flaky, likes to crash from time to time, but gets great results. You can copy directly from the results in that program back into MusicBee, or configure it to save files with your desired name and location. So it's basically a turbo charged version of MB's artwork search for me. I can find >1000x1000 the vast majority of the time (often 1200 or 1400 from iTunes).
For those confused, I used the /artist "<Artist>" /album "<Album>" parameter in the PREFERENCES>TOOLS section to make sure the song details are sent to the right sections of AAD.
What's the interface procedure in AAD? How do I copy or know WHEN to right click and copy with the image is downloading?
Thanks again ScampBll

MusicBee Wishlist / In *Artwork* view I want a tooltip giving the resolution of the artwork
« on: April 07, 2014, 02:04:11 PM »
In the *Now Playing* panel, hovering over the artwork gives a tooltip giving info like image res, artist, album name, etc.
My default browsing view is *Track details* but I like using *Artwork* so I can right click and 'search artwork'.
So, if a tooltip pops up when pointing at the album art directly from the main view then it would be great. I like making sure all my artwork are exactly square and high resolution when possible.

Questions / Congratulations on being listed on FileHippo finally!

I think it's been a month since MusicBee has been shown on Filehippo. Amazing that it took them this long to realise what an awesome piece of freeware media player MusicBee is.

« on: February 14, 2014, 04:42:58 PM »In your case, had it worked before and then suddenly stopped working? Or, never worked at all?It worked before. I know because usually I used to get 720px image (gracnote) and now I find 1000px images (fanart.tv). So yea, been a few weeks since I saw any Gracenote images.
PS: It IS fanart.tv right? Because there is not fanart.com on the internet as the settings shows.

Gracenote and fanart.com on the MusicBee update give pretty high res images.

Questions / How does MB search within Google for artwork?
« on: January 02, 2014, 04:59:21 PM »
I am curious to know how the artwork search works.
<< artist - title
Rihanna Feat. Britney Spears - S&M (Dark Intensity Remix) >>
Although I really like the better quality results in the updates for artwork search, songs like the above mentioned don't give good results compared to a manual search.
The MOST BASIC requirement I have for an artwork is for it to be *square* and the *medium* image size. So by those settings in Google Images the first image that shows is better than the result that shows within MB.

Not sure if my comment is in the right place but you've done a great job with the album artwork feature in the updates Steven. Love the quality of images I get now!
