One thing to consider is that, I believe, it will cycle through anyone listed as an "artist" in the multiple artist splitter.  You could enter it as "Crosby Stills and Nash" there, leaving it the way you'd want to see it in the Display Artist box, and then name your picture accordingly for it to be found.

Thank you ! That worked, I've got the correct artist photo now and yet I still have the correct punctuation in the artist list. Perfect

As I say, I'd kinda guessed that was what it was doing. I was under the impression that the file in the  "..\MusicBee\Artist Pictures" should override the image pulled from online though. Is this not the case?

Questions / Now Playing picture incorrect

« on: October 31, 2021, 09:21:40 PM »

Hello,

I'm having trouble getting the Now Playing artist photo to display correctly. For some reason it won't pick up the photo in the "..\MusicBee\Artist Pictures" directory for this one artist. I'm trying to add an artist picture for "Crosby, Stills & Nash" (spelled exactly that way), and instead of pulling the one from the aforementioned folder it only pulls a picture of Bing Crosby (!). Apparently if an artist has a comma in the artist name it truncates the rest of the name when it does the web search (hence the Bing Crosby photo), but even then I thought having a photo in the "Artist Pictures" directory was supposed to override the web pulled photo. The file in the "..\MusicBee\Artist Pictures" directory has been spelled identically to the artist name in MusicBee. I'm not sure why this is happening. I didn't run into the same issue with "Emerson, Lake & Palmer" despite the punctuation pattern being identical (no oxford comma and an ampersand). Any idea how to fix this?

EDIT: Also, I should note I'm on version 3.4.7805 (the Windows Store version)
