Original issue 910 created by Alexey-Yakovenko on 2012-11-21T14:53:44.000Z:

in order to show the albumart, I follow the instruction here:
http://danielj.se/2011/09/29/how-to-show-album-art-in-deadbeef/
But DeaDBeeF shows NO album art, NOR the embedded and NOR the cover.jpg.

DeaDBeeF 0.5.5
Ubuntu 12.04
Compaq CQ40-328TU

I install the software with the following command:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:alexey-smirnov/deadbeef
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install deadbeef

i need to see how the main deadbeef window looks when album art is not working, to decide about the problem. it might be a plugin problem, or a user error.

since you're not cooperating, i can only give you a generic answer..

  1. make sure you follow the album art steps from the deadbeef help screen precisely;
  2. make sure you have the "artwork" plugin installed and running;
  3. make sure that you enabled the options you need in the artwork plugin settings

good luck.

    Would you mind to inform me what it's name and where/how can I download it?
  2. make sure that you enabled the options you need in the artwork plugin
    settings
    Would you mind to inform me how can I enable the options?
    Thank you

edit->preferences->plugins
look for the album artwork plugin in the list.
the plugin normally comes bundled with deadbeef, but since you are not using an official build -- i can't take any responsibility of what is included or excluded from the build you use.

Would you mind to inform me how can I enable the options?

edit->preferences->plugins->album artwork->configure

if you want to figure out why the plugin doesn't work in the build you use -- you need to contact the person who created the build, explain the problem to him, and ask what to do.

if you just want to get a working build -- this is the page where you can get an official build: http://deadbeef.sourceforge.net/download.html

I just pay a visit to the URL and found artwork plugin is in 0.5.6 version
and not 0.5.5 version that I used.
I know my version from help>about ... so I download a new one. and open it
via USC and it shows update button. So I update it. But before the process
was finished ... the button turn to be reinstall, and it said it was
installed on July 15. I press reinstall so many times, but the process was
never finished.
Any opinion?

i'm not an ubuntu user. i know that the packages can be installed using dpkg -i, but that's where my ubuntu knowledge ends. i think you can get better help regarding package installation on ubuntu forums. perhaps you need to uninstall the old package first, then delete the PPA repository which you used to install the 0.5.5.

btw, the 0.5.5 deadbeef also has the album art plugin included -- i don't think that was the problem.

it might be there, just broken. you can check by looking if you have the /usr/lib/deadbeef/artwork.so

NO ... but I really dunno why ... after restart, the artwork is displayed
once I open the Deadbeef.
But not all ... there is some displayed in LP's with titled Unknown Album.
Can it be fixed?

deadbeef 0.5.x can only display covers for albums, this is why it can't display covers for tracks with unknown artist. this will be addressed in 0.6.x

Is it means that my information does not right?
If that so ... OK ... how can I obtain the right information?

For what I said (Yesterday) is: Example: My collection from a band called
Genesis.

  • Most album has it's own cover. But some do not (LP's with Unknown Album
    label).
