had a look at the source code and I have chaged line 64 of getalbumcover.php to include "folder"

$covernames = array("folder", "cover", "albumart", "thumb", "albumartsmall", "front");

this has fixed issue

is there anyway I can rescan art to replace covers script has found as many of them are incorrect, or any way to clear existing database and start again ?

diff for above change

diff -r ../getalbumcover.php /var/www/rompr/getalbumcover.php
64c64
<       $covernames = array("cover", "albumart", "thumb", "albumartsmall", "front");
---
>       $covernames = array("folder", "cover", "albumart", "thumb", "albumartsmall", "front");

Now you've made your change the Album Art Manager should be able to update all the missing covers.

BTW "folder" is a very unusual and non-standard way to name an album cover.

Thanks for the reply, yes it works fine in the end I cleared the artwork folders as so many of the images displayed were incorrect presumably picking up American album sleeves etc rather than UK ones.

folder.jpg is pretty common as a music folder image in my experience its certainly the one windows has used by default for many years, but never mind my issue was easily fixed

thanks

Ahh, Windows... I said it was non-standard :)

No problem though, I'll make the change for future versions.

Ha Ha. yes Windows will ignore any standard ever created and invent their own, to be fair they're not as bad as they once were
