You can, in the cover manager, right click on it and chose "Add custom picture". Then you could just go to the webpage and download the picture localy to your computer. Then you add that file you just downloaded. yes, you can - but it is not one-step but a lot of steps when you search for a cover and it is not found, then there is a button to specify a file on your local filesystem --- what i request as feature is the same on the same place, but accepting URL's and not only local files --- this way, you can copy a location of a pic in konqueror and paste it in amarok in this mask directly - amarok then downloading the pic and using it directly There's a patch for fetching covers directly from amazon.de instead of amazon.com. (http://mitglied.lycos.de/booo123/amarok-1.1-amazonde.diff) Perhaps it would be nice if the user could select his favourite amazon-site in setting. Greets, Tobias And personally I would like to be able to select 'fall back' locales or be able to select another locale at the failed search dialog. I also tried to have the "select cover image" manually dialog retrieve an image off a remote site. But it can only handle local files. I thought this functionality was built into KDE? It would be very nice. While, now amaroK has support for different locales. Not Japan, because amazon.co.jp apparently doesn't know the difference between books and music. But we should probably focus this wishlist on what Damir was actually asking for, a network transparent "Set Custom Cover". *** This bug has been confirmed by popular vote. *** Feature now in CVS. |
