Album Picture Manager

The Album Picture Manager is a tool which helps you to quickly manage your album thumbnails for your albums.

Using the Album Picture Manager

When the Album Picture Manager window opens up you will see a list to the left containing a small version of the Music Explorer with the following groupings:

  • My Folders enables you to browse through your folders in your Library.
  • Artist, Album, Title, Release Year and Recording Year enables you to browse through your Library grouped by the selected item.
  • Active Selection displays the albums from your active selection.

The main pane in the tool displays albums as thumbnail from your active selection in the left list.

When pictures are downloaded for an album, you can hover over the album and browse through the results with the left and right arrow icons that appear.
A few other controls will also appear when hovering over the album:
