[FIXED]Server does not provide playlist mosaic to mobile

Unread post by troycarpenter »

In Madsonic, it appears that when a playlist is created, Madsonic generates a mosaic to use as the "album art" for the playlist based on the album art of the artists in the playlist. I can see this in the web interface when I select Playlists.

A proper one would look like this:
playlist1.JPG
playlist1.JPG (19.73 KiB) Viewed 3206 times
However, for mobile apps, namely Madsonic and DSub, this album art mosaic isn't delivered properly. In DSub, the playlist screen contains a generic icon:
playlist2.png
This generic icon also appears in Madsonic Mobile in the upper left corner when a playlist is selected.

Instead, the album art should be the mosaic created by Madsonic to represent the playlist. In the case of DSub against a Subsonic server, the album art mosaic is correctly displayed.

I got mixed results with those:

On my device, all playlists mosaics came through except the first 5 in my list.
On a second device, all but the first three.
On a third device, none of them appeared on the device.

two cache locations are involved to this issue:

Server:

stop Madsonic
remove /var/madsonic/thumbs folder
restart Madsonic

Client:

clear /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/github.daneren2005.dsub/files/artwork

or use GUI

DSUB > Settings > Cache/Network > clear Cache

This should fix it!

best regards
