Show cover art of songs not in albums #1122

Open dimtpap opened 2 years ago

dimtpap commented 2 years ago

When a song is not in an album, the app will not show cover art that's embedded in the file. This PR adds a new flag to Song to determine if it is in an album. If it is, the app in other places will use the cover from the album it is in, thus caching and loading it only once. If it's not, it will use the Song's ID to cache the album art.

I spent a few hours on this before realizing that the unique-cover branch has existed since 2016, however it has not had any activity ever since. This PR also differs from that branch because that branch just made it so every song's art is cached.

Would be interested in this as well. Any update? Any way to help out?
