Can you attach one or more of the files that don't display cover art in Elisa?
Comment 2 joergister 2019-04-23 13:11:27 UTC
In general all files that have a cover as a tag in the file itself don't display appear with a cover.
If I then put a .jpg file into the folder in which only the music file itself exist until i put in the .jpg, it won't show a cover either. 
Nor will it have a cover when I put a .png file into the folder.

This is something not yet working and worth a bug report. If the cover file is added later, it will not be noticed.
The embedded cover in metadata is the subject of a fix currently under review.

Thanks for your report.
Could you be more specific as to what is not working ?

I would like to understand if the problem is related to embedded cover images in metadata or images alongside the music files ?
It could also be something else not yet identified.

Can you try again with the latest version from git master? A bunch of work has gone into this and it's now working perfectly for all my music.
