Covers

[Andreas Meyer Berntsen]

I've had the exact same problem now for months. I thought the problems
were related to permissions on the front.jpg files (as some of them were 
wrong), but it's not the case.

My thought is that it should be a "hidden/advanced preference" somewhere that 
you could specify the name of covers 
(front.jpg/cover.jpg/cd.jpg/folder.jpg...whateveryouwant.ext)

Myself, I have all front covers named "front.jpg", back covers are 
named "back.jpg", and scans of the cd itself are named "cd.jpg". 
Additionally, if there's extra information ablut the release, I have a plain 
text file named "info.txt".
