Wrong album art

[CartoonChess]

Sorry this comes with so few details, but so far this consistently grabs the wrong album art.

Mind you, I've only tested it with a handful of albums from the same source: GameChops. Each track in the albums shows the same art, but it's always a different GameChops album. I wonder if this has anything to do with GameChops being less an artist than a label and thus creating some sort of confusion?

This is much more an FYI than a nitpick, though. Just really happy to have this working! Thanks for your hard work.

hmm, it uses the itunes api to search.. if that returns the wrong album... not much I can do unfortunately :(

you can check with:

https://itunes.apple.com/search?term=###TERM##&limit=1&entity=song

Replace ###TERM### with artist+album+song, replacing spaces with +, and see what it is returning there... (check field ArtworkUrl100).

Hmm, interesting. For reference:

• Searching with artist, album, and song: Same incorrect art as shows in Discord.
• Searching with artist and song: Same as above.
• Searching with album and song: Broken image.
• Searching with song only: Correct artwork.

As you say, though, there's probably not much to be done. Thanks for taking a look though!

yeah, usually the most complete queries get the better results, but no good way to know for sure...

anyway, thank for raising the issue, will close it as discussed.

cheers!

Just one thing to add—I found that by replacing ampersands (&) in the artist, album, and song with their percent-encoded equivalent (%24), the correct album art was returned instead. Perhaps this would improve results and avoid broken URLs? Something for reference, potentially. :)

ahhh that might be yes! wanna PR it?

you can probably use url.QueryEscape(str)

Great! Would've had issues fixing it myself honestly. It's working perfectly now. Thanks again!
