My Question or Issue
The album artwork is no longer showing up on the bottom left whenever I listen to a song from a certain album (Be Here Now by Oasis) and it's only this specific album. It may be worth noting that this is one of the few albums I have in my library I got from a CD. But I figured out how to make the artwork display even when ripping the songs from a CD (in my specfic case, adding it in iTunes before I open Spotify and take it from the Local Files). And with any other music taken from CD's I have not encountered this issue. I've tried a number of different things that other people seemed to have had luck with to remedy the problem but none of them have turned up results. I tried removing the album from my Spotify library by deleting it in iTunes so it's no longer in my local files before re-adding it, I tried clicking/double clicking in various places to see if that made it re-appear, I've tried resizing the left sidebar, and so on. But nothing is working. Everything I've tried, with the excpetion of the first thing I attempted, were ideas that I found from other users while looking around on the help pages. I first encountered this issue when I noticed the first 2 songs I had from the album were grayed out, the same way songs are when they're unavailable on Spotify. So I removed them from the playlist and put them back in there from my Local Files. That solved the issue of them not being playable, but then I encountered the artwork dilemma. What's more odd is that while the space where the album artwork should be is blank if the first song I try to play after opening Spotify is a song from that album, if I play a song from another album, the artwork from that album seems to overlap the space where the artwork from Oasis album should be. Then once I go back and try to play a song from the Oasis album again, instead of going back to being blank, the artwork from a different album stays put. It's almost as if the space where the artwork from the Oasis album should be is just a blank space until filled by something else. I really don't know why it's doing this and it's frusturating to say the least. I wondered if maybe an update was to blame for all this or it was something wrong with the indivudal audio files themselves, a glitch on Spotify's end maybe (though I really don't know why that last one would only effect a very select few songs out of the literal thousands I have saved). I apologize for the longwinded explanation, I wish I could've explained it simpler but as per usual, any issues I encounter of this nature are obnoxiously specific. I'm really hoping someone can offer me some helpful feedback. Up until now I've nothing but positive expereiences with Spotify.
