I deleted artwork in ~/.nightingale/xxxxxxx.default/artwork because there were artwork files of music I no longer have in my collection. Now for the music that I still do have and artwork is available in ID3, this artwork is not updated. Only artwork from newly added albums appears. What is the best way to trigger updating artwork?
They only thing that worked was enable Auto-fetch Album Artwork in Preferences, remove the directory that needs rescanning from ~/Music, wait a bit, and move it back. Normally, enabling this option is not needed for Nightingale to notige the ID3 artwork. Is this the most appropriate way?
Additional question is the following. When copying artwork from track menu item View Metadata, the artwork is recoded to jpeg when it is originally png. Is this done on purpose? Ths causes undesired effects when copying from track 1 (png) to track 2 - track 10 (jpeg). To keep all in sync, one needs to copy from 1 to 1 to 10 but png quality is lost. Anyone has thought on this
