Album Sleeve / Cover not Showing..

This wasn't an issue before at all, and now - for some reason, when searching albums via Discogs - It shows the minature album sleeve for the album.

When I click 'Get Release Data' and then click save - it doesn't save the album cover, and instead just shows a blank thumbnail.

I'm not aware of any changes that I've made - so I'm not sure what is going on. I've tested uploading an album cover manually for each album, and that works - so it seems to be an issue with grabbing and saving the album image from Discogs..

Any help would be appreciated.

Best,

Greg

Yeah it worked before. I'm trying on two installations of JMS (one test install) and it's the same on both. :/

Is there any way I can debug this to see what's going on? My GD library maybe? I don't know.

I've just checked - the issue is still there. Could you look into this maybe?

Any news on this Germi? I sent the email about 5 days ago, so I hope you got it.

Thanks,

Greg

Which version of joomla are you using? I had this same issue with the MC for joomla 3.x not showing album artwork. For me it was an issue with MC not creating the folders needed to store the images. Once I created the folders manually, it was then able to download and link the images correctly.

Does your install have all the folders that match http://www.joomlamusicsolutions.com/en/support/installation.html ?

I was having the same problem so I upgraded to the latest component for Joomla 2.5 that was in my downloads and it made the problem worse. Now the search results show up in a new page from the administrator window and the Get Release Data hyperlinks don't return any detailed information about the album. Everything was working fine before so I don't understand.

Disregard. I saw your update in another post about the discogs change to the image API.
