Reset the preferences and cache (the manual way) and try again:

AFAIK VLC is displaying embbeded covers first, then it's searching for files named front.*, cover.*, folder.* and disc.* which are located in the same folder as the audio file.

I make new folder place mp.3 file and custom Front.jpg
When i double click or drag and drop mp.3 in VLC, album picture changed to Front.jpg, but when i did the same on desktop it didn't work.
I place mp.3 file and Front.jpg at desktop.
If i double click or drag and drop mp.3 in VLC from desktop, album picture did not change to Front.jpg, album picture is that stuck one.

Well, IMO you shouldn't use the desktop as a data storage folder.

This is not a problem, i just being curios about why it's stuck.
I'm wondering why this is happening and if it can be solved on my part.
If it can't be solve, ok.
