<pre wrap="">Hello
Using Amarok 1.4.10 (off of KDE3.5.10) on an up-to-date Debian
testing/Squeeze box I am finding the following:
Amarok has stopped updating its album cover art. When manually directed
to do so, it returns no results, even when the albums are easily found
when using a web browser. It loads saved (custom) album art just fine
though.

This is due to Amazon having changed their API. Amarok trunk switched
to last.fm since a few days, and a user has already provided a patch
that has to be applied to the code, you can find it here:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=117&t=76607">http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=117&t=76607</a>
If you are not familiar on how to apply a patch to the code, you
should nag the packagers of your distribution to provide a patched
package.

I don't know how you use Google, but a search with 'Amarok cover'
brings non less than 4 items as first search results that explain the
problem...

Hi Myriam<br>
<br>
Thanks for the quick and helpful reply. <br>
<br>
I think that I over complicated my search by adding too many terms.
When i attempt a more straightforward search, you are quite right it
returns several useful leads. That'll teach me!<br>
<br>
I've downloaded the diff file, but feel a little overwhelmed at
applying it, so will - as you suggest - "nag" the upstream maintainer.<br>
<br>
Once again, thank you for your assistance.<br>
<br>
Best<br>
<br>
AG<br>
