Software Failure!

I take it Volmio is basically the same thing, the classic 'linux fork of death' type scenario? Did any forks allow for album art to be displayed?

[garethsnaim]

OK volumio scanned the lot very quickly and without issue. However the interface is somewhat slower, perhaps you guys could merge back, lol.

I could not make Volumio display track ID right. And their approach is very bad to people...definitely not going back an can not recommend to anyone

Hi Frank. I detect a hint of impatience there from you, sorry if I am not being clear enough and I can assure you I have no ill will towards anyone in the community, I just find it amusing that if there is one version of something linux, invariably there are twelve others, I think the you tube vids 'why linux sux' sums up my frustrations.

Traditionally on pretty much every single music play/streamer I have used, and boy I think I have tried them all, if I choose album view to browse music, then I see the album artwork for each album. On better players in artist view you see the artist as well (plex for instance)

On Rune there is no art work until such time as the music is playing. Unless you can tell me something different? Also wouldnt it be fantastic if the GUI local to the device could display full screen artwork that moves to stop screen burn?

When there's an airbus crash, I prefer to rule out pilot error before assigning blame to mechanical or electronic failure.

[garethsnaim]

Wow, ok then, this escalated quickly. On that basis I assume that its just me that does not see album art in album view?

I have read this thread through twice now (that is two (2) times), it is pilot error. I loved this comment though.... "...perhaps you guys could merge back..." <------ LOL!
