![]() ![]() I think I’d rather stick to the subfolder scheme. in which case there would be no need for subfolders. ![]() I’m carrying around a bunch of these albums on my iPhone too, and space is at a premium thereĪlternatively Kodi handles the iTunes naming scheme well in that multi disc albums are prepended with 1-,2-, etc. Yeah, it could work, but I don’t want to store the same artwork in each file - it’s redundant. Automatically fetch art for itunes mac#I don’t know what difference being on a Mac would make but on windows I just drag the album folder to a Mp3tag shortcut, drag the artwork to the artwork box, click save, close program. But I’ve verified via ~/.kodi/userdata/Database/MyMusic72.db that the artwork is indeed the local one, and not from the online scraper(s).įWIW Mp3tag can just embed the art pretty quick and easy for individual albums. ![]() It might be ignoring your local art and just pulling it from the scraper. I’m not sure why rescraping an album pulled the artwork different than the normal library update. Thankfully it worked! The artworks are there. It was easier to reindex the entire library than finding them one by one. Nah, I’ve got a few hundred of these multi-disc albums. I just figured you might do the troublemakers. I didn’t mean for you to rescrape the entire music library. I’ve checked the Kodi sources to see how hard would it be to jerry-rig this into the library scanner, but to my surprise, it already seems to be implemented since last April: /xbmc/xbmc Now, for some reason the Kodi bundled with OSMC doesn’t feel like picking up the artworks from these multi-disc albums, only the single-disc ones where the artwork is in the same folder… Single-disc albums don’t have such subfolders, so in those cases the artwork is in the same folder as the audio files. The album artwork on the other hand is contained in the top level folder ( folder.jpg), since I didn’t intend to duplicate it among all discs. So each album has its own folder, and within the album folder there are subfolders for each disc, containing the tracks. │ ├── "01 - Aphex Twin - 54 Cymru Beats.flac" │ └── "15 - Aphex Twin - Kesson Dalef.flac" │ ├── "01 - Aphex Twin - Jynweythek.flac" There was a similar question about a year back here Applescript play music from iTunes URL however, the solution provided in that response requires you to know the title of the first track you want to play.I have a bunch of albums in my library which were ripped from multi-disc releases and their folder structure is basically the following: "Aphex Twin - Drukqs/" If I tell iTunes to play via Applescript, it instead starts playing the first album in the entire iTunes library, not the album that is displayed. Where url is defined as an itmss:// album URL, then the album does come up on iTunes, but it won't start playing. If I execute: osascript -e 'tell application "iTunes" to open location "'$url'"' This doesn't work for an album URL, however. Without the "cmd=AddStation" parameter, it won't automatically play. Where url is an itmss:// type URL to a playlist. I've solved the playlist problem with the following: osascript -e 'tell application "iTunes" to open location "'$url'?cmd=AddStation"' I'm attempting to script iTunes to play an arbitrary playlist or an arbitrary album from a shell script. ![]()
