cover selection (in amarok 1.3.2)

Sat Sep 24, 2005 6:18 am
I\'m trying to select the appropriate cover image for an album. I was confused about which album I had selected, so I clicked \"cancel\" on the correct cover; now amarok merely says \"you\'ve seen all the covers amazon has to offer\". So no cover.

This is terrible, from a usability point of view! What I actually want is a cover selector that shows all the results from a search at once, thumbnailed, so that I can click on the one I want. Simple enough.

Perhaps a newer version of amarok has fixed this piece of bad design, but I have not seen it mentioned in a release announcement (and this is the version of amarok in debian stable).

(The cover browser we have does something different; it displays all the covers for every album I have and expands amarok to fill my entire swap partition; this is rarely what I want.)

typo: actually 1.2.3

Sorry about the highly embarrassing typographical error; I reversed the digits in my amarok version number. It is version 1.2.3.

Actually, a good idea. File a wish to the bugzilla, and I\'ll vote it.

There\'s already kind of a wish for this. And getting JuK\'s cover selector for use in amaroK is something I want to do anyways...
