Hi, I would like to set location manually. But if I set location as url for example: http://lide.uhk.cz/fim/student/fsmaloj1/images/album2.jpg cover image is not set. It is only set in case If I choose local path to image of cover. 
In amarok 1.4.10 url to image of cover works perfectly. 
Is it possible to manage it in this version of amaroK?

Seems reasonable

This is a wish and a feature request, since Amarok fetches covers form last.fm by default now.
