CoverScout ReviewAlbum Art Nirvana - Version: 2.3.7, 6/29/2008 11:58PM PST

I've tried various "get album art" widgets in the past with mixed results. After consolidating my iTunes libraries I had 170 GB of music and a lot of missing art so I decided to give this appĀ a try.

I'm really glad I did, as it has helped me supply the missing artwork to hundreds of albums.

I liked the Google search options, the way that results can be viewed and compared quickly, the clipboard for saving choices and the ability to edit the album image (which I used to scale images up or down to eliminate annoying white edges).

I also like the way CoverScout will associate the album art with the songs internal tagging instead of residing in an external folder (the iTunes default method). This way, when I create a new library, the album artwork will still be with the songs.

Note: My iTunes music is on an external drive and this did not cause any problems in CoverScout.

CoverScout CommentaryCouldn't even try it out because of iTunes library location - Version: 2.3.4, 7/12/2007 03:51PM PST

Pseudowho
My iTunes library is not located in the default location in my ~/music/ folder, it's deliberately placed off the root of my drive, as it has been for years. I wanted to try out CoverScout, but was disappointed to find that when I opened it, all I could do was click a Quit button.
Apparently because my iTunes library is not in the default location, CoverScout can't find it, and doesn't give me a browse option.
I imagine this probably isn't going to be an issue for most people, but it's too bad the program doesn't let me locate the library, since it seems like it'd be a nice app, and as it is, I can't run it -- maybe this will be added in a future version.
