Batch Art Finder won't stop searching for album art

Post by tigers1122 »

I do the Batch Art Finder and it'll find the album art and then just keep searching, so I have to click save really fast or it looks for something else.

Is there a setting that needs to be changed somewhere? Thanks!

I've had reports of this before, but never managed to reproduce it. Does this only happen with certain batch sizes?

i'm having this same problem with the latest mm and batch art finder script; it keeps searching a few a few minutes replacing some of the correct album art with bad ones or "no results". I am testing with about 6 albums and it takes about 5 minutes to cycle through to these undesirable results. The pause button doesn't seem to work either.
I've tried a ton of options for this script (batch size, different sources, etc.) and reinstalled the script. How does one uninstall this script so I can get a clean install of it again?
Thanks in advance since I 600 albums that I'd love to get tagged,
Tim

This is normally because the minimum size check is failing - this can be made worse if you have a slow internet connection. I've had a new idea to improve this, but I haven't had time to experiment with it. Try setting the minimum size to 0x0 and see if that helps?

i just found the issue:
I believe the min size was tripping it up since I went after 300x300 min and it didn't like it.

sorry for seeing your post. it's working famously, now, trixmoto (thank you for this and the art tagger one too!)
it took me a few tries to get the right combos of options for it to work, but it's working now.
is there a faq and/or help 'file'/page for this script?
thank you!

No, there's no set documentation. I try to make the settings as obviously as possible and there's always this thread to find answers in, although it's gotten a little long now! :)
