Album Art
There are lots of things Jinzora can do with Album art.
They are:
|
Displaying

Jinzora can display alubm art for all the albums in your collection.
The requirements for this are simple. All you need to do is to put
the art in the folder along with all the media tracks. When Jinzora
sees this folder and its corresponding media (including the art) it will
select the first image file that it sees and use that as the art everywhere in
the system.

making adding album art to your collection very easy. They are:

Specifing per album

"Search for Album Art" in the top left hand corner of Jinzora.

Auto Searching
If you enable it ($auto_search_art = "true"; in settings.php) Jinzora will automatically
search for album art for albums when you view an artist. Jinzora will download the first
match it finds for a particular album. You can easily click the "Change Art" link below
the album (or on the Track page) to select a different album cover for that album
NOTE: When Jinzora can not find a match on art it will create a template image with the
name of the album dynamically generated on the image for you.

Using the Admin Tool
If you wish, you can use the "Search for missing album art" tool on the Tools page in Jinzora
to go through each album in your collection, one by one. While this can be time consuming on
a large collection, for smaller ones it can let you choose each album cover you want, one by one
in a relatively quickly fashion
NOTE: When Jinzora can not find a match on art it will create a template image with the
name of the album dynamically generated on the image for you.
