Hi all. I am missing most (but not all) of my artist.jpg metadata images. See screenshot. Some obscure artists yes but surely some should have images. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks |

If you havent supplied them locally then the are very slowly downloaded in the background. |

Thanks. Slow in what way? My library import (local files) was 3 days ago. I did just now notice that after I clicked an artist then came back later, the image had been downloaded. Is there a way to force download for all artists? I figured that was how it already worked |

Are the images in your local folders? |

They are not, no. For instance 'Electric Eye' does show an image in UI but there is no image in library |

So they are then getting downloaded from the internet. I can’t remember exactly what the rate is but depending on your library size it could take some weeks to get them all. The next question is have you tagged the files per our Docs? If not then the lack of musicbrainz identifiers will be limiting the search to name only and some providers won’t accept that. You have found out how to force it though and that is to visit or play an item. |
