Album art missing for local music library

Hello again. 

 

I'm listening to music from my local library for the first time in a little while and the album art is not displayed. 

It's the same on android and ios.

There used to be limits on the artwork Sonos would display, but I’m not sure how the new app behaves. See (I wrote these):

Note the requirement to rebuild the music index sometimes.

If you find anything out about the new app’s behaviour, I can update the above guides.

Try a reboot, Sonos, NAS and router, my library art is still showing.

I am using image files, not embedded album art though.

Cheers. I'll do a reboot tomorrow. My images are embedded, as a FYI in case that makes a difference.
