update: when i install old webnowplaying skin what i found i have -> WebNowPlaying_0.5.0.rmskin it say not recommended but i can install it normally but then extension say there is update and when i update that issue appears?
Is it totally stuck even if you play something on YouTube, etc. or only with Twitch? In general, just try restarting Rainmeter, your browser or your computer.
what skin do you use that shows the wrong picture?

I use this: https://www.deviantart.com/xenium-art/art/Black-Panther-Suite-UPDATED-19-MAY-2023-911894723
It happens atleast youtube and twitch. I tried all things restart pc.. Rainmeter. When i install old plugin there is no any issues but when i update it newest issue appears
Make sure you are using WebNowPlaying 2.0.0 or 2.0.1 as they have fixed some issues with downloading cover images from 1.2.0 which is bundled with the skin you use.
Otherwise, please try looking for the PlayerType=Cover
Measure in the skin and removing the line starting with CoverPath=
if it exists.
i tried that still same issue. and right now im using newest one. issue happens. i need to try find older which worked fine.
v1.2.0 that works and no any issues.
While using an older version isn't a good solution, there's nothing preventing you from using it if it works for you.
Could you try going to %LocalAppData%\Temp\Raimmeter\WebNowPlaying
and see if the image file in there updates correctly?
v.1.2.0 yes.
v. 2.0.1 no.
Really odd, any errors from webnowplaying in the rainmeter log?
yes. it so many errors and that: ImageName unable open in that place %LocalAppData%\Temp\Raimmeter\WebNowPlaying cover.png
So again, does this only happen with Twitch or with every website?

not sure any other websites but atleast youtube and twitch.
Is your browser extension updated? It says the version at the bottom right of the settings panel, should be either 2.0.0 or 2.0.1
yes its updated latest version 2.0.1
The "ImageName unable open.." error isn't related to webnowplaying but rainmeter itself, please look for logs starting with "WebNowPlaying.dll - ..."
weird. i cant see anything like errors with webnowplaying.dll but that issue appears when i update plugin 2.0.0 -> skin works fine with v.1.2.0 and its shows right cover also when watching some from twitch. probably some skin issue then idk.
You can test if it's a skin issue by using the bundled example skin, that skin should always work.

tried another skin -> https://www.deviantart.com/eclectic-tech/art/Lyrical-955447334 and i have newest version using also same thing. so its something rainmeter probably. whatever. if some older version works i will use that.
This is certainly a WebNowPlaying issue but I am out of ideas as to what it could be, you seem to be the only person so far running into this issue..

i can confirm, it wasn't. i think.. I did another account and tried only same skin and newest webnowplaying version no any issues. now i decided uninstall completely rainmeter so can't figure what it cause that. i noticed there was so many webnowplaying.dll version folders so i removed other ones and only leave newest but it did not work. not sure. i now install skins back i will let you know if this happens again.
Interesting.
The many webnowplaying folders in @Vault
are fine, the actual plugin is in %AppData%\Rainmeter\Plugins
.
Just curious, what browser do you use?
opera gx, but also use it on my other account too. 🤔
You could try disabling native apis in the extensions settings panel and see if that was interfering with anything
now i try install only this skin should install webnowplaying.dll with this skin and then update or install newest webnowplaying and then add this skin?
the order doesn't matter.
most likely i found what can cause that, it is using YourFlayout (jax core rainmeter skin). however skin what using it works, but browser extension say there is update oh well.. need to find alternative that flayout thing. and when install that jax core skin (your flayout) it install some very old plugin..
Since I assume this is not a WebNowPlaying issue now, is it fair to close this issue?

most likely no, but im not 100% sure, atleast it is fixed now.
@Makezu90 I have found an issue where it doesn't save the cover for certain outdated skins. Could you please try v2.0.3 and report back? Thank you!
