VLC displays embedded cover art or enclosed cover art files just fine for audio files.
However when streaming, this doesn't seem to work.
Here's a stream that shows cover art when using foobar2000, but doesn't in VLC:

Is this probably a configuration problem on my side or does this happen for everyone?
