Sorry this issue may collect multiple issues but I don't know how to describe them.

I think the UX of cover management is quite bad. It lacks some user feedbacks to understand how the gui is working and so on. And there are some weird bugs(?) that buttons are disabled and the user doesn't know why...

Please see the gif I attached.

Reproducible: Always

One single issue per bug, please, we don't use grouping bugs.
As for the UX: you are welcome to give a hand, be aware that our top priority currently is to port Amarok to Qt5, every helping hand is welcome for that.

Sorry for flaming... You're right, this one won't help anything... I'll close this...

I tried to compile amarok and tried to understand how things work but I didn't manage it... Maybe I'll look on it again...
