| Summary | 0004287: Album Art is sometimes saved with relative path and sometimes absolute path | ||||
| Description | MM sometimes saves Album Art to an absolute path. The following case works correctly: 1. Select multiple files 2. Right-click 3. Select “Auto Tag from Amazon” 4. Locate the right album and download cover art to ‘Folder.jpg’ -->The CoverPath column in the Covers table will be set to ‘Folder.jpg’ (a relative path). The following case (used when Amazon can't find the album or doesn't have cover art) however, doesn't work as expected: 1. Select multiple files 2. Right-click 3. Choose ‘Properties’ 4. Select ‘Album Art’ tab 5. Click ‘Add’ button 6. In the ‘Select image files’ dialog, paste an internet url into the file name box. For example: http://www.wholelottaledthebook.com/images/pageBowingBW.jpg 7. Click the ‘Open’ button 8. The ‘Add Album Art’ dialog will appear. 9. Check the box next to “Save image to album folder” 10. File name should be ‘Folder.jpg’ (actually, note here that this defaults to lower case ‘folder.jpg’. Not a big deal, but it is different.) 11. Click ‘OK’ button. 12. The image at the URL will be downloaded to ‘Folder.jpg’ in the same folder as the tracks. -->Now, for these tracks the CoverPath column in the Covers table will be set to ‘<drive:>\<folder>\Folder.jpg’ (an absolute path). | ||||

I reviewed the code and all paths should be stored in relative form, i.e. as 'folder.jpg' I could not reproduce by using your steps, but true is that If I pasted the link http://www.wholelottaledthebook.com/images/pageBowingBW.jpg into the file name box and then click 'open' -> Invalid filename message popus so I had to use a filename from disk C:\, do you think that using of the http link is the case or it also occurs for you by using an image file from HDD too? Note: I am not sure why I could not used the http link, maybe that I am a XP user instead of Vista? |
