Bug Description

Ubuntu 11.04
Rhythmbox 0.13.3-0ubuntu6

A large number of my music files have album art embedded.

However Rhythmbox seems unable to show them. For now it only downloads them from the Internet, thereafter littering my music folder with albumart.jpg's.

It's supposed to both fetch embedded album-art first then search for Internet album-art last.

btw on Oneiric rhythmbox is grabbing the album information from lastfm which might be a lot better than the old way (doing search on amazon, etc) would be nice if you cna try the same on it the code is probably improved on the latest version on Oneiric.

This happens to me too. For some strange reason, Rhythmbox only fetches about 50% of the ID3-embedded album art. A fix for this would be greatly appreciated.

Posting the debug.txt just now. By the way, Rhythmbox doesn't search for album art on the internet at all on my system (ubuntu 11.04 32-bit).
