Three CD's ripped but no cover art...

[RickF]

I just received my new VB appliance yesterday and so far everything is working fine but it hasn't downloaded the cover art for the three CD's I've ripped, should the VB download the cover art automatically with each ripped disc? I'm using a Squeezebox Classic as the server.



The three CD disc I've ripped so far are:

Chris Issak - 'Mr. Lucky'

Tom Petty - 'Mojo'

Pink Floyd - 'Division Bell'



Am I doing something wrong?



Thanks.

A few things to try:

1. Click the "Get Cover Art" button on the VB GUI Auto Ripper page.

2. Install bliss and let it find cover art for you.

3. Get the cover art yourself. *http://albumartexchange.com has the best. *Amazon.com and Google Images are also useful.

Ron- Isn't there a way to make cover art retrieval the default whe ripping?* This isn't automatic for me either.* -thanks

Cover art retrieval is the default; don't know why it's not working for you.

Ron-* I think I see what was happening.* Whenever I had a problem ripping a CD, retries on ripping songs, etc., a secondary problem would be that the art was not included.* On a good rip, everything was ok.* I'm learning to clean my CD's really well before ripping & this is fixing problems.
