Hi all,

i`m really new in MB, but i love it. Have found most of my nedd, but there is some, i don`t found:

Where can i activate, looking for covers, to search in gracenote and discogs. I only search in fanart.tv, last.fm and google (found nothing every time).

I don`t find this option in the "Option Menue".

Thx for your help.

Regards
Penny

Gracenote has stopped working because of restrictions on their end: http://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?topic=12005.0

Discogs was also disabled because of API changes on their end: http://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?topic=11874.0

for tag searching from discogs which is still supported in MB, there does appear to be some issues on the discogs side with no clear indication anything is being done:

for google, you need to update to the latest v2.4 beta from the first topic on the forum

Hi,

thx for information. Helps a lot. Maybe , i will post it in wishlist, is there a possiblity to do a search in google pictures or sth. like that. I have a lot of problems to find Covers for VA Albums because most people name thre covers differently.

Only a small wish... and a big step for all :-)

Ok another question is this possible and if yes, how too ?

Having a Folder of an Artist: e.g. Ben Liebrand
In this Folder i have the Grandmixes.

Now every Grandmix has it`s own cover but the folder doesn't. I want to have as an "cover" the picture of the artist regarding to the folder. Hope it`s understandable.
