Default album art shows as a grey image about jellyfin-audio-player HOT 4 CLOSED

Wow, that's a great edge case 😅. Let me check out the API responses and see if there is a way to make that work in this app as well.

Had a chance to look at the logs while opening one of these albums and get the following error message.

Right, that makes sense, as it tries to load up the image for the particular track, and/or album I guess. Thanks for the help!

Hey there! I've looked in to the issues but it seems a bit hard to solve. First off, Jellyfin doesn't really support inheritance for images on the server side (this is what the error you posted is about). While I could do a check if the image is there, I would need to do twice or triple the amount of requests in order to retrieve all images. On top of that, the web client for Jellyfin also doesn't seem to fall back to an artist's image if a track or album is missing it.

I am closing this issue for now, but maybe if the back-end has a better way to fall back to these types of images, it can be considered for this application as well. If I've missed anything important, do let me know as well.

Cheers!
