Make jellyfin pick up artist pictures? - Hanner#4560 - 2023-09-09

Hey there,

jellyfin is barely getting any artist pictures due to my odd taste I guess.
I couldn't find a plugin to scrape from something like metal archives, so is there a way to make jellyfin pick up local files for this?

I tried putting a JPG into /Artist/.. but that doesn't seem to get picked up either.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Smiling-face

Check out the Cover Art Archive plugin.

Jellyfin would pull down images if it was able to identify your music. And it uses the embedded ID3 tags. If your music isn't uniformly tagged, use something like Musicbrainz Picard to analyze the music and automagically fill out your metadata and it will also embedded images.

I am manually fixing every single album via mp3tag and musicbrainz.
Album Art works since I already embed it, either via musicbrainz or manually if musicbrains database fails me again.

Here's an example for an artist that doesn't get an image from jellyfin:
