[vlc] vlc player - wrong covers are diplayed

[Olaf Raabe]

Dear people at videolan!
I've got a problem with the vlc-media-player 1.1.10 The Luggage.
I run the Player on a Windows7 Home Premium Computer.
I mostly use the player for mp3-playback.
I've embedded mp3-tags including an album cover in each file.
These covers are displayed correctly on windows media player, windows 
explorer and my mobile player.
The viewing of these covers also works fine in the vlc-player, but in 
case of a sampler-album, there is a strange behaviour:
The vlc-media player obviously stores the first read cover of an album 
to "C:\Users\.......\AppData\Roaming\vlc\art\artistalbum" and then uses 
only this picture if the name of an album is found.
If You are playing files of a sampler-album, only the cover of the first 
played file is displayed correct. All other files get the cover of the 
first file.
I don't want to loose the information of the album, where the files are 
from, so the workaround to delete the album information doesn't work for me.
Is there a way to display only the embedded cover-pictures and to ignore 
the stored album covers?

If this feature isn't yet implemented in der program, maybe You can do 
this in the future. I would be very pleased.

Thank You very much for an information.

Yours faithfully,

Olaf Raabe
