Playing Audio CD - Album art lookup

  • Hi forum,

    I have setup LibreELEC on a Raspberry Pi4 to play Audio CDs directly from a USB CD drive.

    I want info retrieved such as track info and Album art. Track info is working using the Universal Album Scraper, but Album art is blank and not retrieved. I tried all other scrapers including optional ones available for download.

    Does anyone have any suggestions on getting Album art to display, without ripping the cd? I just want to insert the cd and play it, with Album art and track info displayed.

    Thank you!

  • IIRC that's the correct behaviour for optical media. Scrapers are dependent on the library database so you need to rip the CD first.

    Thanks for confirming this.

    I do not want to rip the CD first, I just want to play it.

    Does anyone know how to get cover artwork to display when playing a audio cd?
