Google Play Desktop Player No Album Art #129

Closed oddlock closed 6 years ago

oddlock commented 6 years ago

Description

Have opened up firewall settings. I get the GPMDP popup saying the player is being controlled by the visualizer but still get no album art.

No album art showing when I choose the webplayer and go to google play that way.

The image may have been corrupted/write locked try rebooting and then deleting the image found in %Homedrive%%Homepath%\Documents\Rainmeter\Skins\Monstercat-Visualizer\@Resources\images\coverGPMDP.png

If that does not work let me know, also I have never tried it with a podcast as I use pocket casts does the plugin handle them well?

Edit: My bad I just realized that both that and WebNowPlaying are bugged out for you. Try repeating the steps and deleting coverWeb.png as well. It may be that it is a podcast issue or Google broke something, I will look into it in the meantime.

It seems it is an issue related to podcasts. I am investigating a fix for WebNowPlaying now and will likely submit a PR to the GPMDP Dev team as well if the issue is not isolated to just my plugin.

Found the source of the isse, for whatever reason Google appends -rwu-v1 to the end of podcast album art after size. If you try to load the max size image with that still appended it will fail. I have finished the patch for WebNowPlaying and am forking GPMDP so it may be fixed there.

I am going to leave this open and give status updates on the patches until they are all live.

tjhrulz commented 6 years ago

Both the Chrome and Firefox updates have now been approved and are live.

GPMDP devs have been notified of the issue and I am going to be resubmitting my patch shortly as my first build failed

tjhrulz commented 6 years ago

Since the patch for Webnowplaying is live I'm going to go ahead and close this issue as the Google play music desktop player team typically takes a while before they push to live
