Unable to view all folder.jpg files via folder view
I've bought MinimServer 2 and like others I’m keen to be able to see artist artwork. I understood this can be achieved via ‘folder view’ and have begun the process of creating a folder.jpg file for each album artist in my collection. This got off to a good start with each jpeg showing up, but I seem to have hit a limit, in that some of jpegs I’ve created for this purpose aren’t visible. I’ve checked that these files have correctly been given the name folder.jpg; and performed a rescan as well as a restart but that didn’t help. My collection isn’t particularly large incidentally, but its eclectic and probably features about thousand different album artists. Any pointers or advise will be really appreciated – thanks.

Is the folder visible but with no picture or is the folder itself missing? If the folder is visible but with no picture, please attach the missing picture file to a post here.

That's strange additional folder.jpg files are now showing up - they weren't yesterday or the day before, hence my post. I'm not sure if this issue could be control point related, but the files weren't visible in either Kazoo (which I mainly use) or the windows version of Upplay...

Thanks for posting this file. This .jpg file is working for me as folder artwork. I think this is an issue with how the control point is caching artwork. There have been some posts about this problem with Kazoo. The most recent thread is here.

Just a quick update to say that this issue appears to have gone away - perhaps it was related control point caching.
