Glad this project is alive and well! For strange reasons, covers are not displayed in-app (replaced by a generic placeholder) but do appear in the android media related screens (media controls, lock screen, etc).

Open a ticket up and post a screenshot, that is indeed weird. What back end are you using and how do you tag your metadata? There are some settings regarding artwork and sizing along with mobile/wifi settings that could possibly affect it.

Looks like it was caused by the “size of streaming cache” which I had set to 0 under the assumption/hope it would mean “unlimited”. Though I had to log out and back on for album art to effectively reappear.

yeah that is confusing - I realized later that it is also what happens when you go into data saving mode, no artwork. That is why I suggested looking at the settings. Glad you figured it out. We will need to make the cache better and clearly. I, for one, want to cache everything and store everything locally, however, there is a performance aspect that is generally the challenge.

Glad to hear that! That’s an area of dsub which I appreciate: it’s pretty clear what’s cached offline and not, transitioning to offline is one tap away, and caching whole sub-trees of the library is easy and convenient. As a frequent flyer, I get that I might be an atypical user, but I rely on this very much.
