hi, i have tried to obtain album art data from current media by this way:

CODE

album_art_manager_instance_ptr aami =
    static_api_ptr_t<album_art_manager>()->instantiate();
try
{
    foobar2000_io::abort_callback_impl abort;
    album_art_data_ptr pdata =
        aami->query(album_art_ids::cover_front, abort);
}
catch (...) {}

but always gets an exception exception_album_art_not_found, i have tried all album_art_ids but always same result. Any ides ?

Maybe you'd have to call the aami->open() method first, with path to the file you want to get the album art from. I guess there is no automatic fallback to "currently playing item" or anything like that.

thanks for your tip, you were right member function open must be called before query, thanks
