Description of bug:

I have a "various artists" problem: when 'album artist' tag is specified as "Various artists" the whole album displays same artwork from song #1 (or whatever I play first), ignoring the covers embedded in id3 tags. Pulsar, Musicolet, Retro Music, doubletwist Music Player, Poweramp, Neutron don't have that issue. It's same exact albums.

Steps to reproduce:

-

Expected outcome:

Described above

Observations/Actual Result:

Described above

How can this bug still be present, over 2 years later? Every other music player out there doesn't have this problem and it should be really easy to fix. In another case it only took ~30 lines of code to fix this: https://github.com/winyl-player/winyl/commit/4272d7d3d27983e18850a87589e27a9627d963ea

@FaySmash this is a feature request, not a bug.

I have decided not to store artwork on an individual track basis in order to reduce data transfer and disk usage.

If you think this problem is simple to solve, please file a pull request.
