Hi everyone,

doing the first steps with LibreELEC and getting closer to the things I want to do with it.

Our music files are located on a nas-drive, which I added to LibreELEC. So I can browse through the artists and albums and also play the mp3-files.

I organized the music library using foobar2000.

For singles I embedded the albumart into the mp3-file and those pictures are also properly displayed.

For albums foobar2000 suggests, that you put a file called "front.jpg" into the directory of the album. Those are also displayed within foobar2000.

But they are not displayed in LibreELEC.

Is there a way to tell LibreELEC to display album art, which is not embedded in the mp3-files?

Cheers

Rainer

Found it, thank you.

Hi there,

posting my first posting in this forum, just a short introduction: Living in Germany/Franconia, 56 years old, working with linux since quite some years.

Received my my first pi last friday and I am quite new to raspberry and libreelec.

What do I want to do?

In the livingroom there is a stereo and we had an IPdio Tune (appliance for webradio), which does not work anymore.

So I decided to go for a raspberry with libreelec to listen to webradio and our music files, which are on some nas over here.

I bought a Pi 4B and a IQaudio DAC Pro (Sound card).

Installed libreelec 10.0.1 today and was able to see the music files and get some webradio broadcasts tuned in. Everything fine.

Since I do not want to have a monitor/keyboard/mouse in the livingroom the plan was to use an android tablet to choose songs or radiostations.

So I installed "Kore, official remote for Kodi".

Being unsure, what I else would need, I installed on the Pi "Chorus, jez500 - 0.3.10".

Meanwhile I found out, that another webinterface is also installed named "Kodi web interface - Chorus2, jezu500, Tema Kodi - 19.x-2.4.8

Seems that they are both activacted at the moment (deactivated one to test, whether there is maybe a collision between them)

In some description I found, that you have to activate the webinterface via: Settings > Services > Control

Coming from the Root-Menu I go to the settings button (cogwheel) -> LibreELEC-Configuration -> Services and there I can see some buttons to active ssh, samba etc. but no httpd

Directly in the Setting-menu I do not see any "Services"-Submenu.

telnet ip 8080 or to other ports (80, 9090) says "connection refused", so I assume, no httpd is running.

Maybe a stupid question: Does Kore need a running httpd on the pi or is there another service neccessary?

To make a long posting short: What to I have to do on the pi and which app for the tablet do I need to control libreelec.

Thanks in advance for your help
