foo_discogs to download Only album art automatically

2009-03-04 10:06:40

As mentioned in the topic, I'd like to use foo_discogs to download only the Album Art for the currently playing song automatically without writing Tags from discogs. is this possible? Or is there another plugin which does so?

Thanks for your help,

Iltis

you can go to "discogs > edit tags mapping" and disable the option for writting tags

Yes I know, and I just did that, BUT:

the discogs Plugin doesn't seem to download Infos automatically and although I disabled all tags to write, it just "does" something, but I don't know what exactly.

well, you can make a copy file and compare.
although here is ok, nothing is writen (i've tested and re-checked my mappings;)

and there are other tools, if you want only album art. maybe you know this: Album Art Downloader, but it requires .NET 3.5

I just don't get it to work. I would like to scan my Media Library and, if there isn't already a file called %album%.jpg in my <root>\Album Art\ folder i would like to donwload them. I neither can make Album Art Downloader read the library nor keep the folder structure. What shall I do?

Thanks for your patience and help.
