Manjaro : VLC displays the wrong image

Postby Lehmeier » 06 Aug 2022 21:03

Good day!
I have a problem with the VLC under Linux.
Since I am currently ripping my old CDs with EAC, I would like to have the images (e.g. cover) displayed during playback.
This also works, with the VLC, under Windows 10 but not under Linux Manjaro.
I have already made the entries under "Tools => Advanced settings => All => Input / Codecs => Access modules => Audio CD => Musicbrainz Server : musicbrainz.org" and
"Tools => Advanced settings => All => Input / Codecs => Access modules => Audio-CD => CDDB-Server : freedb.videolan.org" - unfortunately without success.

The following picture is always displayed :

Image

instead of Image

Does anyone have an idea how I can make it work again so that only the right picture is displayed ?

what you're describing sound like a server thing, which is downloading a different image than it did before, maybe your windows install of vlc has already cached that 2nd cover and so didn't had to re-download it.

if you could give us more information (logs, album infos), we might be able to help you further

I have the problem on the Manjaro machine and the Windows machine had the CD in for the first time.

I have also changed the settings "Tools => Advanced settings => All => Input / Codecs => Access modules => Audio CD => Musicbrainz Server : musicbrainz.org" and
"Tools => Advanced settings => All => Input / Codecs => Access modules => Audio CD => CDDB-Server : freedb.videolan.org" - unfortunately without success. Therefore it should not download anything anymore.

I don't know what album info you need. But the CD is :
Alexandra from the Star Edition by Koch Universal Media.

It has the number 06025 1720388.

I also inserted the CD and had the log file recorded.
Here is the output with "error diagnosis":

If anything is missing, please let me know.
