Embedded artworks are not added from MiniDLNA to library!

Greetings to all Libreelec forumers,

I apologise in advance if it is not the place to post this subject. I would appreciate some directions from you guys.
I've been using LE as a music player for playing my music files located on an Openmediavault (Rock64) server using Samba.
I lately decided to use MiniDLNA to see if I can access my library from outside my home through the internet.
I deleted the sources pointing to the Samba shares and added the sources of the MiniDLNA server shares.
I disabled Samba on OMV and cleaned my LE music library, then scanned my new sources.
The problem is that scanning the music files from MiniDLNA is not finding/adding any embedded artwork to LE my music library!
Selecting Files from Music menu, I can see and play my music files, but no artwork is displayed!

Am I missing something or is this a known issue with LE/MiniDLNA?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Could you show some logs? Maybe there is something shown.

An alternative is likely Emby, this is designed around that kind of usecase.

Hi CvH,
I will try to install OMV/Docker/Emby on a spare XU4 that I have and see whether the problem is still there before I share some logs.
And to be honest, I don't know if I should start any process to catch it in a log!
Will keep you posted.
Have a nice evning.
