Foobar Does Not Display Large Album Art

Foobar does not display large album art when using images from the album folder. I have my album folders organized with cover art as cover.jpg and no embedded artwork. The cover.jpg's that have pixel sizes of 4000x4000 show as blank in the Foobar Album Art Viewer and in Facets. I noticed 3000x3000 jpg's and smaller work but not 4000x4000. I also tried switching to ColumnsUI and same issue (not sure if this was even a smart test but either way it doesn't work)

What's strange is if I embed the 4000x4000 jpg as Front Cover it does work, so this issue is only when using image files in the album folder.

I'm using the latest Foobar version 1.6.11 on Win10 with Default User Interface. When viewing the Console no errors appear.

Maybe check
Preferences > Advanced > (in Filter you can type "Album art") > Display > Album Art > Maximum external art size

It's 8 MB for me.

Yes!! This fixed it! I changed it from 8MB to 100MB and now it is working as expected. Thank you so much I had no idea that was a setting.

It is my first time using this forum, am I supposed to mark the thread as solved or anything like that?

As far as I know, it's not possible for a user to edit the subject line here at HA but just letting the thread participants know what happened is always appreciated. Thanks.
